BINUS UNIVERSITY has strengthened its emphasis on IT as the central pillar of its well-earned reputation for excellence through the implementation of IT-based processes in course curricula and at every level of internal operation. This has seen the university become synonymous with a modern approach to higher education in Indonesia as well as with the development of entrepreneurial, globally oriented graduates particularly equipped to spur innovation in tech industries. Success in this regard is further emulated through BINUS UNIVERSITY’s ‘A’ accreditation status which was issued by Indonesia’s National Accreditation Board of Higher Education (BAN-PT). BINUS is ranked as a Top 11 university in Indonesia – an achievement awarded by QS in 2016 – which acknowledges the higher education institution for its upper-hand in inclusiveness, teaching, employability, and social responsibility thus positioning the university as a leader in Asia’s higher education institution.
BINUS UNIVERSITY further distinguishes itself within Indonesia’s highly competitive tertiary education sector by collaborating with international universities to form ties that facilitate initiatives such as the creation of unique joint degree programmes. Through BINUS INTERNATIONAL, the university has founded a School of Engineering and a School of Design with partner institutions from Japan and the United Kingdom, respectively, and demonstrated its commitment to results from MoUs and partnership agreements.
Through more than 130 international partner universities, BINUS UNIVERSITY prepares its students for the local and global stage. Targets such as the aim to place graduates in multinational companies coupled with an existing network of more than 1,000 alumni members overseas has seen BINUS emerge as a beacon for a bright new future for Indonesia’s higher education sector, in which international cooperation serves to fuel the development of globally-competitive human capital.

BINUS UNIVERSITY through its commitment to the attainment of international standards and drive to offer education of the highest quality has firmly established itself as a strategic partner to a host of leading academic institutions around the world. The university presently cooperates with more than 110 higher education institutions spread across five continents including countries such as the United States of America, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, South Korea, Japan, South Africa, China and India. As testament to BINUS’ understanding of equipping students with the skills needed to thrive amidst greater ASEAN regional integration, the university also works extensively with universities based in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Cambodia and is seeking to extend its network within these markets.
BINUS UNIVERSITY's position as the pre-eminent private university in Indonesia is strengthened by its ability to offer access to cutting-edge facilities for both its students and faculty members. Since 1974, the university has continuously invested in new facilities, as seen by the inauguration of the Syahdan Campus in 1984, the Anggrek Campus in 1997, the JWC Campus in 2001, the Alam Sutera Campus in 2014, campuses for BINUS Northumbria School of Design and BINUS ASO School of Engineering in 2014 and 2015 respectively; the university has also recently-launched its Bridging Campus in Bekasi. These strategically-located campuses presently serve more than 30,000 talented students and 1,500 highly-qualified educators, and thereby comprise one of Indonesia’s most vibrant academic communities. To better cater to the needs of international students as well as local students from outside of Jakarta, BINUS has also developed BINUS SQUARE – a modern student accommodation complex.
On the 25-27th November 2020, BINUS UNIVERSITY alongside 70 exhibitors in total took part in the QS Apple Virtual Conference and Exhibition on the topic of New Global Partnerships for Resilience and Climate Action. Online for the first time due to the pandemic, the event attracted over 700 delegates from 38 countries.
