UGM maintains top record

SEMARANG: Yogyakarta's Gadjah Mada University (UGM) maintained
its record as the best state-run university in Indonesia,
according to a survey carried out by experts.

The National Accreditation Body (BAN), which conducted the
investigation, ranked Jakarta's University of Indonesia (UI) and
Semarang-based Diponegoro University (Undip) in second and third
places respectively.

This was followed by Bandung's Padjajaran University, Malang's
Brawijaya University and Airlangga University in Surabaya.

The results of the survey was made available to the media on
Thursday by Undip rector Eko Budihardjo in Semarang.

BAN said UGM managed to score an A for 43 of its study
programs, Bs for 17 study programs, and a C for one study
program.

"Of the 31 state-run accredited universities, the best 10 are
prominent universities based in Java, Sumatra and Sulawesi," Eko
said. --Antara
