Campus History

University Of Gadjah Mada UGM was officially established on December 19, 1949 as a national university. Considered as one of the oldest universities in Indonesia, University Of Gadjah Mada UGM serves as a pillar of educational awakening in Indonesia, and purports to be a defender and disseminator of Pancasila. When it was founded, University Of Gadjah Mada UGM only had six faculties.

Now, University Of Gadjah Mada UGM has 18 Faculties, one Postgraduate School (S-2 and S-3), and one Vocational School. University Of Gadjah Mada UGM is one of the oldest universities in Indonesia, located at the Bulaksumur Yogyakarta Campus. Most of the faculties in the University Of Gadjah Mada UGM consist of several departments and study programs. The academic activities of University Of Gadjah Mada UGM are expressed in the form of the cornerstones of Tri Dharma higher educational values consisting of Education and Teaching, Research, and Community Service.

The name of Gadjah Mada also had a special meaning, containing the spirit and good example of Prime Minister Gadjah Mada of the Majapahit Empire that was able to unify the Nusantara archipelago. This was interpreted into the formulation of identity of UGM as a national university, spirit of existence of the Republic of Indonesia, university of Pancasila, university of the people, and centre of culture university. In the initial period of establishment, UGM had 6 faculties, namely Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Law, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Letters and Philosophy, Faculty of Agriculture, and Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. The early lectures were conducted in the Sitihinggil and Pagelaran compounds, employing rooms and facilities of the Kraton Palace in Yogyakarta. In 1951 physical construction of the Bulaksumur campus began and, entering the decade of 1960s, UGM already had facilities such as hospital, radio transmitter, and other facilities that supported student learning in addition to serving society's interests. Now UGM has 18 faculties, one graduate school, one vocational school, and tens of study programmes. University Of Gadjah Mada UGM

Faculty of Agricultural Technology

Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering is a leading department engaged in teaching, research, and extension activities in the various field of agricultural and biosystem engineering. The mission of our department is to run the undergraduate and postgraduate program by applying science and technology in the field of agricultural and biosystem engineering to support the development of the sustainability of tropical agriculture. The goals of our department are to create a curriculum for the undergraduate and postgraduate level which is in line with technological developments in the field of agriculture and biosystem engineering, as well as to implement the learning process to develop Agricultural and Biosystem Engineering professionals with technical proficiency and a sense of social responsibility.

The Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering offered Bachelor program in Agricultural Engineering for 8 semesters duration, Master program in Agricultural Engineering for 4 semesters duration, and Doctoral program in Agricultural Engineering Science for 6 semesters duration.

The Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering has 5 (five) prominent laboratories namely Energy and Agricultural Machinery Laboratory, Land and Water Resource Engineering Laboratory, Postharvest and Food Engineering Laboratory, Biophysics Engineering Laboratory, as well as Farm Structure Environment Engineering Laboratory.

All undergraduate and postgraduate programs at the Department of Agricultural and Biosystem Engineering gained A for accreditation conducted by the Indonesian National Accreditation Agency for Higher Education. Teaching is conducted in small class sizes and all classes taught by department members not teaching assistants. Public lectures on special courses other than specified in the curriculum are conducted frequently to enrich students with new technological knowledge. Summer course and exchange student programs are also available to provide an international atmosphere for students. After graduating from the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering, students can work as a professional, scientist, engineer, manager, and entrepreneur.
