I am very proud to briefly introduce Gadjah Mada University to readers. Founded in 1949 in the cultural and educational city of Yogyakarta, Gadjah Mada University is the largest tertiary institution in Indonesia and the best in several ranks. Since its inception, UGM has been a place of learning for young people who come from various regions in Indonesia with their respective local cultures and languages.
In line with its internationalization program, foreign students at UGM are also increasing. Aside from having dual-degree programs with some of the world’s leading universities, we also accept foreign students who go through various programs for various activities. This makes the atmosphere of learning at UGM feel the atmosphere of Indonesia as well as internationally.
With a wealth of scientific disciplines available at Gadjah Mada University, students have a wide and varied choice of study programs. This also provides an opportunity for students to enrich their knowledge, research experience and interdisciplinary approach at Gadjah Mada University.
Not only students, researchers, lecturers, industry and other institutions who want to collaborate with UGM also find a wealth of disciplines at UGM. Besides having 248 study programs, UGM also has 22 study centers. Our extensive collaboration experience with fellow educational institutions, research institutions, government, non-governmental and industrial institutions, has made us able to facilitate intensive collaboration.
The comfort and support of facilities on campus is also supported by a conducive campus environment. Located in Yogyakarta, an education city rich in historical heritage and rich in cultural heritage, students and researchers and guest lecturers will also gain enrichment of knowledge and experience. In addition to the Yogyakarta Palace, the location of the UGM campus is also quite close to two of the world’s leading temples, namely Borobudur Temple and Prambanan Temple.
We will explain more information about UGM in the following pages. However, more complete and more up-to-date information can be found on our website. We are happy to meet you on our campus.
