Sebelas Maret University (Indonesian: Universitas Sebelas Maret) better known as UNS, is an Indonesian state university located in Surakarta, Jawa Tengah.
[edit] The History
Sebelas Maret University was established in 11th of march, 1976. Before this university was established, there were 5 universities in Surakarta. To improve the quality in education, the universities were finally incorprated into a state university. After doing a consolidation for 5 years, UNS prepared to start its development. It started the physical building in 1980. Lead by dr. Prakosa, the campus’ buildings that were originally separated then made into one location in Kenthingan, near Bengawan Solo River, on a 60 hectare area. The fast physical growth also balanced with some developments in other areas. In 1986, Prof. Dr. Koento Wibisono S was elected to be the next UNS Rector for two periods (in a row). Under his command, UNS began to settle its basic growth accelerator. Some significant changes happened, such as in staff and academic development, and also in infrastructure strengthening.
After Prof. Drs. Haris Mudjiman, MA, PhD became the Rector of UNS, the acceleration began. UNS step into a whole new stage. The main spirit was to give as much chance as needed to make a progress in every single aspect in the campus.
The effect of this spirit is very stunning. Now, UNS, a relatively young-growing university, has been known for its great skin surgery practice (medical faculty), the well known starbio and salt resistant rice plant from the faculty of agriculture, and some other main progresses that occur in every faculty and bureau. UNS also has made a big step in the future feature, the information technology. With its expanding network that gets bigger, Puslinet UNS (Pusat Layanan Internet UNS) has scratched a new history in UNS book of progress. Yet another history is happening right now in this growing university, and yet it's getting bigger and promising.
