Brief History

Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha here in after referred to as Undiksha is a state institution of higher education where students learn to be teachers and non-teachers. In Bali, it is the biggest institution where students go to be teachers. So far more than thirty three thousand students, most of whom are teachers, have graduated from it. It was established in 1955 when it ran a B-1 Course through which students were trained to be Indonesian Language Teachers. In 1957 it ran a course through which students were trained to be Teachers of Commerce for Senior High School. Then, in 1962 the two courses were merged into the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education ‘Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan’ hereinafter referred to as FKIP of Airlangga University. In the same year FKIP was merged with Udayana University, and in 1963 it became IKIP Malang, Singaraja branch. In 1968, FKIP was developed into two faculties; they are the Faculty of Teacher Training and the Faculty of Education and was still under Udayana University. In 1981, the Faculty of Teacher Training and the Faculty of Education were merged into the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education of Udayana University. In 1993 FKIP was separated from Udayana University and became the Institute of Teacher Training and Education ‘Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Pendidikan Singaraja’ hereinafter referred to as STKIP Singaraja, and in 2001 it became the State Institute of Teacher Training and Education Singaraja, hereinafter referred to as IKIP Negeri Singaraja. Finally, the two courses, through a long process, after IKIP Negeri Singaraja became Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha (Undiksha) based on the Presidential Decree No. 11/2006 dated 11 May 2006, became Undiksha. .
