Perkembangan teknologi informasi telah memberikan kemudahan dalam
pengelolaan organisasi, termasuk organisasi kemahasiswaan. Namun, proses
penyampaian informasi dan pendaftaran anggota pada Unit Kegiatan Mahasiswa
(UKM) di Fakultas Matematika dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam (FMIPA) Universitas
Syiah Kuala masih dilakukan melalui berbagai media yang terpisah sehingga
pengelolaan informasi dan data anggota belum berjalan secara optimal. Penelitian
ini bertujuan untuk membangun Sistem Informasi Unit Kegiatan Mahasiswa
(UKM) FMIPA Universitas Syiah Kuala berbasis website menggunakan metode
Waterfall, dengan memanfaatkan framework Laravel, bahasa pemrograman PHP,
serta MySQL/MariaDB sebagai basis data. Sistem ini memiliki tiga jenis
pengguna, yaitu Super Admin, Admin Pengurus, dan Anggota, dengan fitur utama
meliputi pengelolaan data UKM, pendaftaran anggota, verifikasi calon anggota,
pengelolaan kegiatan, galeri, jadwal pendaftaran, data pengurus, kontak UKM,
manajemen akun, serta pusat bantuan (FAQ). Hasil pengujian menggunakan Black
Box Testing menunjukkan bahwa seluruh fitur pada sistem telah berjalan sesuai
dengan fungsi yang dirancang, sehingga sistem ini dapat membantu meningkatkan
efektivitas penyampaian informasi, proses pendaftaran, dan pengelolaan
administrasi UKM di lingkungan FMIPA Universitas Syiah Kuala.

The rapid development of information technology has provided significant benefits in organizational management, including student organizations. However, the dissemination of information and the member registration process for Student Activity Units (UKM) at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA), Universitas Syiah Kuala, are still carried out through various separate media, resulting in less effective management of information and member data. This study aims to develop a web-based Student Activity Unit (UKM) Information System for FMIPA, Universitas Syiah Kuala, using the Waterfall development method, the Laravel framework, the PHP programming language, and MySQL/MariaDB as the database management system. The system supports three types of users: Super Admin, UKM Administrator, and Member. Its main features include UKM data management, member registration, applicant verification, activity management, gallery management, registration schedule management, organizational board management, UKM contact management, account management, and a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) feature. The results of Black Box Testing indicate that all system features functioned according to their intended design. Therefore, the developed system is able to improve the effectiveness of information dissemination, member registration, and administrative management of Student Activity Units within the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Syiah Kuala.
