UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta has once again strengthened its international reputation. Four undergraduate study programs at the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST), Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics, have successfully secured an extension of their International ASIIN Accreditation (Accreditation Agency for Degree Programs in Engineering, Informatics, Natural Sciences, and Mathematics), valid through September 30, 2030.

This achievement stands as evidence of UIN Sunan Kalijaga's success in maintaining internationally recognized standards of higher education quality while further strengthening the institution's competitiveness on the global stage.

The accreditation extension was issued by the ASIIN Accreditation Commission, headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany. For the Mathematics and Physics study programs, the decision was finalized during the ASIIN Accreditation Commission's plenary meeting on June 26, 2026. Meanwhile, the Biology and Chemistry study programs received their final decisions after successfully fulfilling all requirements set by ASIIN. The official updated certificates were received by UIN Sunan Kalijaga on July 14, 2026.

The accreditation extension was granted for the maximum possible duration, running through September 30, 2030. This outcome demonstrates that all four study programs meet international standards across a range of aspects, including study program governance, learning-outcome-based curricula, the quality of human resources, the teaching and learning process, research, and a sustainable quality assurance system.

The success of these four study programs further strengthens the position of the Faculty of Science and Technology as one of the faculties with international recognition in the basic sciences. ASIIN accreditation also serves as recognition of the quality of educational provision in line with global standards, thereby increasing the confidence of academic partners, industry, and the public in UIN Sunan Kalijaga graduates.

This achievement further adds to UIN Sunan Kalijaga's list of international accomplishments in strengthening the quality of higher education. Recognition from ASIIN is an indicator that the educational processes within the Faculty of Science and Technology meet international standards and are capable of producing graduates who are competitive on the global stage.

With the success of the Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics study programs in maintaining International ASIIN Accreditation through 2030, UIN Sunan Kalijaga further affirms its commitment to achieving higher education that is excellent, internationally reputable, and oriented toward continuous quality improvement.
