Achieving International Standards
University Links
UIC is part of the UniSadhuGuna (USG) group in Indonesia which has over 25 years of experience in education. Derived from the Sanskrit words meaning ‘Noble Scholar’, UniSadhuGuna was set up by Yayasan Persaudaraan Bangbayang ’66. This dynamic Foundation comprises business and social leaders, all former graduates of Indonesia’s finest universities. Today, the Group provides a wide range of educational services for over 30,000 students a year.
As part of the USG Group, UIC maintains international standards through its partnerships and links with leading universities, colleges, and professional associations in Australia, the UK, the US, Europe, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore. USG’s own Academic Standards Committee, in conjunction with external audits from our international partners, also ensures consistently high standards. Internal and external verifiers check the standards of BTEC HND
