This study aims to find the right strategy for increasing scientific publications for students of the Department of International Relations, UPN 'Veteran' Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Thus, it is essential to consider the low number of scientific publications produced by students considering that scientific publications are an obligation for academics. The Director-General of Higher Education Letter No. 152/E/T/2012 concerning the duty of scientific publications for students and Regulation of the National Accreditation Board for Higher Education Number 5 of 2019 concerning Study Program Accreditation Instruments requires publication and citation student scientific articles. The research uses action research to find strategies for increasing scientific publications where there are three research steps: identifying problems, making and testing procedures, and evaluating. The second step is to try the strategy based on problem identification. Problem identification is made through an online open questionnaire. The third step is the evaluation of the action research. Experiments conducted to influence student behavior in scientific writing showed that socialization and coaching clinics were needed to increase knowledge about scientific writing and encourage ideas. While writing assistance can produce student scientific publications because of its nature and able to foster comfort. This empirical evidence provides insights for the manager of student scientific journals and department managers to provide formulations for improving students' quality and quantity of scientific publications.
