What if I told you about a university that bridges tradition and modernity? Right here, before us, stands Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia, or UIII. Established in 2016 by President Joko Widodo, UIII is more than just a university. It’s a symbol of Indonesia’s unique position in the world, a testament to the compatibility of Islam and democracy. Indonesia has the largest Muslim population globally, yet it’s not an Islamic state. UIII embodies this pluralism, this openness. The university aims to be a center for moderate Islamic scholarship. It offers master’s and doctoral programs in Islamic Studies, Social Sciences, Economics and Business, and Education. UIII attracts students from around the globe. In 2022, applicants from 31 countries sought admission, a mix of Indonesians and international students. The curriculum is rigorous, designed to cultivate high-level expertise. It blends foundational courses, core competencies, and electives. Significantly, a mandatory course on Wasathiyah Islam emphasizes moderate Islamic values. The UIII-LPDP Scholarship Program provides financial aid to both Indonesian and international students, supporting the development of future leaders. The location of UIII itself speaks volumes. It’s situated in Depok, on land previously used by Radio Republik Indonesia. This transition, from broadcasting voices to nurturing minds, symbolizes Indonesia’s commitment to education and global dialogue. Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia seeks to share Indonesia’s experience with the world. It’s a place where Islam, modernity, and progress intertwine. It’s a place where religion plays a positive, transformative role in society.
