Gadjah Mada University ((インドネシア語:Universitas Gadjah Mada); abbreviated as UGM) is a public research university located in Yogyakarta, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Officially founded on 19 December 1949, three years after its first lecture was given on 13 March 1946, it is the oldest and largest institution of higher education in Indonesia, and considered one of the most prestigious. Comprising 18 faculties and 27 research centers, UGM offers 68 undergraduate, 23 diploma, 104 master and specialist, and 43 doctorate study programs, ranging from the Social Sciences to Engineering. The university has enrolled approximately 55,000 students, 1,187 foreign students, and has 2,500 faculty members. UGM maintains a campus of , with facilities that include a stadium and a fitness center. UGM is implementing an "educopolis" campus atmosphere by creating a conducive learning environment—especially by developing multidisciplinary collaborations and by responding to ecological issues—in order to achieve the vision of the university. Some of the steps taken include construction of new dormitories on campus, development of pedestrian areas, reduction in pollution and vehicle exhaust emissions, restrictions on vehicles entering campus, development of parking pockets, and planting trees.〔 ==History== UGM was the first state university in Indonesia, originally established as Universiteit Negeri Gadjah Mada (UNGM) when the Republic of Indonesia was just 3 years old and facing threats from the Netherlands, which wanted to regain control of the Republic. At that time, the capital of the Republic of Indonesia had moved from Jakarta to Jogjakarta. UGM was established through Government Regulation (PP) No. 23 of 1949, regarding the merger of colleges to form a university. Although these regulations were dated 16 December 1949, the UGM's inauguration took place on 19 December 1949. 19 December was intentionally chosen to alleviate the grief caused by the invasion of the city of Yogyakarta the year before. Additionally, it was meant to show the world that exactly a year after the Netherlands had returned to Indonesia (19 December 1948), the Government of Indonesia would be able to establish a nationwide university.〔 When founded, UGM had six faculties: Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmacy; Law, Social and Political Sciences; Engineering; Letters, Pedagogy and Philosophy; Agriculture; and Veterinary Medicine. From 1952 until 1972, the Faculty of Law, Social and Political Sciences was split into two faculties: the Surabaya branch of the Faculty of Law, Social, and Political Sciences; and the Faculty of Education and Teacher Training, which was integrated into IKIP Yogyakarta (now Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta ()). During its initial years the university used the buildings and other facilities belonging to the Kraton of Yogyakarta (Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX's palace). UGM gradually established a campus of its own in Bulaksumur on the northern side of Yogyakarta. The university now occupies an area of three square kilometres. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gadjah Mada University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
