Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
Universities implement student access measurement tools to advance gender equality, analyzing enrollment data, program participation, and resource allocation. Such metrics are crucial for identifying disparities and driving policy changes to create equitable learning environments where students of all genders can access opportunities and succeed on an equal footing.
As a leading university, Universitas Indonesia not only focuses on providing quality education, but also strives to address gender inequality in the academic environment. One of the initiatives taken is to systematically measure the level of women’s access to education, including enrollment, acceptance and study completion rates. This aims to ensure fair access for women to higher education, as well as promoting equality in student admissions regardless of gender.
Education Fund Assistance Program (BDP)
Acceptance of Active Student Data for 2023-2024
Through various programs and initiatives, Universitas Indonesia continues to support the development of outstanding students in all faculties. One form of appreciation is the Education Fund Assistance (BDP) program which is intended for outstanding students. Apart from providing educational funds, UI also encourages students to continue to develop themselves outside of academics through activities such as the “IWK UI Got Talent” competition. Programs like this show UI’s commitment to supporting equal opportunities for all students, both in the academic and non-academic fields, in an effort to produce a superior and achieving generation.
The Universitas Indonesia is committed to supporting gender equality, one of which is by implementing policies that provide opportunities and fair and non-discriminatory treatment for all individuals, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender, marital status, age, disability or sexual orientation. The Universitas Indonesia implements a student admission policy through the Universitas Indonesia Entrance Selection (SIMAK UI), which is an independent selection pathway that is open to all genders.
The Faculty of Nursing (FoN UI), has a policy that supports gender equality and equal opportunities in the student registration and acceptance process, in accordance with Chancellor’s Decree no. 2719 of 2018 concerning Indicators of Principles of Cultural Behavior at the Universitas Indonesia . The UI Faculty of Nursing supports the principle of gender equality in the student admissions process. However, in 2023, there will be more female students (84.44%) than male students at this faculty. This is not caused by discrimination, but rather by society’s perception that the nursing profession is more suitable for women because of characteristics that are considered feminine, such as patience, attention to detail, and gentleness in caring for patients. UI remains committed to maintaining an inclusive and objective admissions process, providing equal opportunities for all prospective students, regardless of background.
The Universitas Indonesia is actively developing various programs that support women’s access to education. UI understands the importance of providing fair opportunities for female students, including through providing various accesses specifically designed to increase female participation. Through programs such as scholarships, mentoring and academic guidance, Universitas Indonesia aims to create an inclusive learning environment and support the success of female students in achieving their best potential.
As part of this scheme, UI provides a mentoring program specifically designed for female students. For example, the UI Faculty of Public Health (FKM UI) has distributed scholarships throughout 2023 involving students of various genders. Of the total scholarship recipients, 81.85% are female students, showing the faculty’s strong commitment to supporting women’s participation. Apart from scholarships, FKM UI also offers mentoring and counseling programs that help female students with academic and professional development.
Apart from that, at the UI Faculty of Economics and Business, there is Student Guidance and Counseling (SGC), which is an example of mentoring, where students receive academic and personal guidance. This program aims to help them face the challenges of study, career and self-development. Through this assistance, FEB UI ensures that female students have fair access to the support needed to be successful, as well as providing space for them to grow and develop in an inclusive and equal educational environment.
