The excellent and professional human resources who have the competencies relevant to their expertise are required by every higher education institution. Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI), as one of the big institutions of higher education, requires a variety of ways to develop and improve its human resources, especially teaching staffs (lecturers) to reach the leading and outstanding university. Supported by professional and competent lecturers, the university is expected to be able to reach its vision and missions. Nevertheless, the University has experienced a shortage fulfillment of professors and lecturers who have doctoral degree and associate professor positions. The barriers are in the writing of scientific papers indexed by Scopus, the lecturers lack the courage to expose themselves in making or participating in international journals, lack of ability in terms of language and research in accordance with the international standards and funding issues, and the lack of understanding of the carrier development rules. Therefore, this study tries to find solutions on how UPI can address the problem of development of lecturers, especially the lecturers who have positions from associate professor to professor.
