Long overdue the Universitas Gadjah Mada. Has taken the initiative to start an International Undergraduate Programme (IUP) for some of its Faculties. This is in order to aim for foreign International Students that wish to study in Indonesia. As generally the regular programme has the Lectures held in Indonesian and the study meterials more nationalized. However the International Undergraduate Programmes aims to do away with this constrictions and so hopefully aim to students globally.
There are for now only few of its faculties that provide International Undergraduate Programmes. They Are:
1. Faculty Of Law
2. Faculty Of Medicine
3. Faculty Of Business and Economy
4. faculty Of Politics And Social Studies.
I have only indept knowledge of the IUP of the law faculty being enrolled there and only limited information regarding the IUP of the other faculties. However I do have siblings that are enrolled in the IUP of the Faculties of Medicine and Business so I have some knowledge about them.

Globalization today has not only created new opportunities, but has also brought new challenges. In a global, liberalized and interconnected world where opportunities and changes are great, institutions must extend their capacity to interact within the global sphere. Universitas Gadjah Mada’s Faculty of Law, a well-established legal education institution and recognised as one of the top law faculties in Indonesia, has the capacity to extend its reach to an international level. This extension is to be facilitated through a process of “internationalization” that will be driven by the mission of Universitas Gadjah Mada: “(to) become an excellent and prominent research university according to international standards, orientated around the interests of the people and based on the Pancasila”. This mission has motivated and encouraged the Faculty of Law at Universitas Gadjah Mada, as a leading educational institution in Indonesia, to become part of an educational setting at an international level, especially to prepare its students to work to a level that is comparable to that of students from outstanding universities around the world.
The Faculty of Law at Universitas Gadjah Mada understands the need for a long-term strategy to meet this mission, in order to continuously create new approaches and adapt to existing ones which can assist the institution deal more effectively with new opportunities and challenges. One strategic way to address this mission is to establish an international program within the Faculty of Law.
The international program shall promote the Faculty of Law and the Universitas Gadjah Mada internationally, in line with our mission to become an internationally recognized higher educational institution. Graduates will be expected to master the scientific knowledge and practical skills of law in an open-minded, critical and tolerant manner that is sensitive to individuals, especially in relation to legal and judicial matters, and be able to implement their skills and knowledge in solving legal and judicial problems. Our modest and open-minded society, full of the warm and friendly people of the city of Yogyakarta support this process.
The international program has been arranged under the coordination of the International Program Office, the Faculty of Law, Universitas Gadjah Mada. The IP Office manages activities and programs that relate particularly to the International Undergraduate Program (IUP). This program relates to the development of international networks with foreign universities and other institutions. The IUP shall concentrate on three areas—Public International Law, Business Law, and Constitutional Law—and invite Indonesian and foreign nationals to partake in the study and teaching of these areas. As well as the IUP, several programs have already been held by the International Program in cooperation with other foreign universities and international institutions, in the form of training and seminars, workshops, summer courses, internships, auditing students, and visiting professors.
