The Faculty of Economics and Business at Universitas Gadjah Mada (FEB UGM) has reaffirmed its dedication to delivering top-tier higher education with its recent accolade as the best university in Indonesia for accounting studies.
This remarkable achievement underscores FEB UGM’s unwavering commitment to academic quality and its prominent standing on the global stage.
FEB UGM’s relentless pursuit of excellence is epitomized by its attainment of the prestigious AACSB international accreditation, marking a significant milestone as the first Indonesian institution to receive this esteemed recognition.
This commitment to academic distinction is further validated by international-ranking institutions, with the Department of Accounting playing a pivotal role in this commendable feat.
According to the Times Higher Education World University Rankings (THE WUR) for 2023, UGM clinched the top spot as the finest university in Indonesia for economics and business, securing a global ranking between 501st and 600th.
Subsequently, in the 2024 rankings, UGM maintained its stellar performance, securing the second position nationally while maintaining its global ranking within the 501st to 600th range.
This consistent display of excellence across teaching, research, industry engagement, and international outreach underscores FEB UGM’s unwavering commitment to academic excellence.
THE WUR by Subject offers invaluable insights into the specific strengths of academic disciplines at universities worldwide.
Unlike overall university rankings, which may overlook the nuanced strengths of specific subjects, this ranking method provides a focused perspective on the quality of education within particular fields.
Analyzing data spanning the past five years (2020 – 2024), UGM’s remarkable performance in economics and business, particularly within the accounting domain, has consistently positioned it at the pinnacle of national rankings.
This impressive track record includes four instances of securing the top spot in 2020, 2021, 2002, and 2023.
