Undergraduate courses
Full-time courses across our five faculties typically last for three to four years, although some degrees such as medicine and architecture have a longer duration.

Our Undergraduate Prospectus lists entry requirements for A levels and International Baccalaureate students for each course.
If you have taken Surat Tanda Tamat Belajar Sekolah Menengah Umum Tingkat Atas (STTB - SMA); or Surat Keterangan Hasil Ujian Nasional - Sekolah Menengah Atas (Certificate of Completion of Academic Secondary School), you must complete a foundation course for entry to our undergraduate programmes. As well as our own foundation courses, we accept foundation certificates from selected providers in the UK.
Students who have completed at least one year at a university in Indonesia and achieved good grades can be considered for direct entry to our undergraduate degree courses.
