Yogyakarta State University (formerly IKIP Yogyakarta or Yogyakarta Institute of Teacher Education and Educational Sciences) was founded on May 21, 1964. Historically, IKIP Yogyakarta was a merger of two educational institutions: the Faculty of Pedagogy of Gadjah Mada University and the Institute of Teacher Education. These two institutions offered study programs of educational sciences and teacher education. The merger itself was mandated by the Presidential Decree of the Republic of Indonesia, Number I/1963. About thirty-six years later, on August 4, 1999, the President of the Republic of Indonesia, by Presidential Decree No. 93/1999, officially declared that IKIP Yogyakarta was converted into Yogyakarta State University (abbreviated as YSU) with a broader mandate. This university is also legitimate to offer non-education study programs. The conversion of IKIP Yogyakarta into a university was based on some considerations. One of them is the observation that an educational institution's organizational structure was insufficient to support scientific development and that the number of graduates of IKIP Yogyakarta who entered non-teaching fields also increased. In carrying out the broader mandate, YSU initially offered 12 non-education study programs at the bachelor level and three-year undergraduate diploma levels in the following faculties: the Faculty of Languages and Arts Education the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences Education the Faculty of Engineering and Vocational Education The non-education study programs include those offered in the Faculty of Sport Sciences and the Faculty of Economics. By 2025 UNY envisions that the university will have enjoyed a world-class education with piety, autonomy, and intellectuality as the foundational values. Mission UNY has some missions as follows: Conducting professional education, academic education, and vocational education in teacher training with the support of non-educational fields to facilitate the development of students in becoming graduates who uphold piety, autonomy, and intellectuality. Conducting researches to unearth and disseminate knowledge, to invent and disseminate technology, to create and disseminate arts, and to develop and disseminate sports to improve individual and social welfares supporting regional and national developments and answering global challenges Conducting community services and empowerment to enhance the development of human, social, and natural potentials to achieve social welfare Establishing good university governance and a clean university government in implementing the university autonomy.
