• History & Memorable Moments

The roots of Indonesia University (UI) dated back to 1851. At that time, the colonial government of Dutch East Indies decided to established a school to train medical assistants. Such a training lasted for two years, and the graduates were certified to give simple and basic medical treatments. The degree conferred was Javanese Doctor as the graduates were certified only to open their practice in Dutch East Indies, especially Java. The program became more comprehensive, and by 1864 it was expanded to three years. By 1875, the program of study had reached 7 years length and the graduates were entitled to the degree Medical Doctor. ^[1]

The next step happened in 1898 when the Dutch East Indies government established a completely new school to train medical doctor, named STOVIA (School tot Opleiding von Indische Artsen). The prerequisite to enter STOVIA was roughly the equivalent of a junior high school diploma, but the school's education took 9 years, so it was a mix between high school and university education. Many STOVIA graduates later played important roles in Indonesia's national movement toward independence, as well in developing medical education in Indonesia. ^[1]

In 1924, the colonial government again decided to open a new tertiary-level educational facility, to train civilian officers and servants, the RHS (Rechts Hogeschool). The RHS would later evolve into Faculty of Law. In 1927, STOVIA's status was changed to become a full tertiary-level institution and renamed as GHS (Geneeskundige Hogeschool). The GHS occupied the same main building and use the same teaching hospital as the current Faculty of Medicine. Many GHS alumni would later play roles in establishing the Indonesia University of Indonesia. ^[1]

After the independence of Indonesia, the Indonesian Institute for Higher Education (BPTRI) was established in Jakarta consisting of three faculties, namely Medicine and Pharmacy, Letters and Law. The institute produced its first 90 graduate students as medical doctors in the same year. When the Dutch colonial army occupied Jakarta in late 1945, the BPTRI moved to Klaten, Surakarta, Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Malang. In 1946, the Dutch colonial government established a Nood Universiteit or Emergency University at Jakarta. In 1947, the name was changed into Universiteit van Indonesie (UVI) or the University of Indonesia. Following the Indonesian National Revolution, the government established a state university in Jakarta in February 1950. The name was Universiteit Indonesia, comprising of BPTRI units and the former UvI, which was later changed into Universitas Indonesia (UI). ^[1]

By 1950, UI was a multi campus university, with faculties in Jakarta (Medicine, Law, and Letters), Bogor (Agronomy and Veterinary Medicine), Bandung (Engineering, Mathematics and Natural Sciences), Surabaya (Medicine and Dentistry), and Makassar (Economics). The Surabaya campus became Universitas Airlangga in 1954, and in the following year, the Makassar campus became Universitas Hasanuddin. In 1959, the Bandung campus became Institut Teknologi Bandung. The School for Physical Education, which was also located in Bandung, became part of Universitas Padjadjaran in 1960. In 1964, the Bogor campus became Institut Pertanian Bogor and the Faculty of Education in Jakarta became Universitas Negeri Jakarta. By 1965, UI consisted of three campuses, all in Jakarta, namely the Salemba Campus (Medicine, Dentistry, Economics, Engineering, Science and the Graduate School), the Rawamangun Campus (Letters, Law, Social Science and Psychology) and the Pegangsaan Campus (Public Health and parts of Medicine). ^[1]
