History

Bina Nusantara University originally evolved from a computer training institute, Modern Computer Course, which was founded on October 21, 1974. Along with its development, the Modern Computer Course later developed into the Computer Engineering Academy (ATK) on July 1, 1981. The academy offers informatics and informatics management education. Three years later, on July 13, 1984, ATK achieved registered status, and the name changed to AMIK Jakarta. On July 1, 1985, AMIK opened a course in accounting computerization. AMIK began to use the name Bina Nusantara on September 21, 1985. AMIK was awarded the Best Computer Academy Award from the Ministry of Education and Culture on March 17, 1986. AMIK Bina Nusantara then formed STMIK (College of Informatics and Computer Management) Bina Nusantara on July 1, 1986. The institute then offered undergraduate study programs (S1) in informatics management and informatics engineering. On November 9, 1987, AMIK Bina Nusantara joined STMIK Bina Nusantara to form an educational institution offering a diploma study program (D3) and strata 1 (S1). STMIK Bina Nusantara gained equal status for all courses on March 18, 1992. STMIK Bina Nusantara then opened a postgraduate program of information systems management, first in Indonesia on May 10, 1993. Bina Nusantara University was established on August 8, 1996. STMIK Bina Nusantara then joined BINUS UNIVERSITY on December 20, 1998.
