Message from Rector

Welcome to UKRIDA, and warm greetings to all of us.

Praise and gratitude to God Almighty for His grace and mercy, which have guided UKRIDA through its long journey to where it stands today. As we enter our 58th year, a mature age for a Christian-based higher education institution UKRIDA has gone through various dynamics that have shaped its reputation and capabilities as one of the prominent private universities in Jakarta.

The rapid development of information and communication technology, particularly in this digital era, presents challenges that must be faced and navigated together by the entire academic community. With faith in God and guided by our motto “Lead to Impact,” UKRIDA remains committed to optimizing and advancing the quality of higher education services. This is pursued through the expansion of strategic partnerships with national and international educational institutions, government agencies, industries, and other key stakeholders that support the realization of our vision, mission, and strategic plans.

UKRIDA continues to pursue academic excellence by increasing the number of Scopus-indexed publications and SINTA scores among faculty members, promoting lecturers to Associate Professor and Professor ranks (JAFA), and enhancing student recruitment through more extensive promotional efforts and various other performance indicators. All these efforts are tailored to meet the evolving needs of the academic community and society in the context of the digital era.

Every achievement of UKRIDA is both our responsibility and pride. Finally, as the Rector of UKRIDA, with passion and commitment, I proudly introduce and invite all of you to become part of our academic community to create opportunities to learn, grow, and make a meaningful impact for the nation and the world, together with UKRIDA.

Lead to Impact!

Terima kasih
