The digitalization era currently has a big role in affecting the development of language which we use for communication and the hallmark of a country. This study aims to determine the development of the Indonesian language used by students in the Industrial Engineering Department at UPN Veteran Jawa Timur. The method used in this research is through a qualitative approach with data collection through questionnaires distributed to students of the Industrial Engineering Department. The data obtained then will be analyzed by reducing data, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that students of the Industrial Engineering Department generally use slang in everyday communication. The slang language used reflects the current dynamics of the Indonesian language which is affected by globalization, such as the influence of foreign languages ​​and social media. In addition, this study also found that slang was used with the aim of creating a relaxed atmosphere and an intimate impression in their relationships. Suggestions that researchers can give from the research results are for Industrial Engineering students, the results of this study can be used to increase student awareness regarding the use of good and correct Indonesian. Students need to maintain good Indonesian language skills and be able to express opinions clearly and effectively in a variety of situations.
