Bali, 4 November 2026 – BINUS University (BINUS) continues to be recognized among the top 200 universities in Asia in the QS World University Rankings: Asia 2027, released this week at the QS Higher Ed Summit: Asia Pacific 2026 in Bali. 

Twelve Indonesian universities made the top 200. BINUS is the only private higher education institution among them, and it remains the highest-ranked private university in Indonesia since 2019. It reflects the university’s sustained commitment to educational quality and regional competitiveness by staying relevant to industry needs. 

Acknowledging the collective efforts behind the achievement, Rector Nelly deeply appreciates the BINUS community for their dedication and contribution. 

“This result belongs to everyone who has helped build BINUS. It pushes us to keep raising the bar. We’ll keep strengthening our ties with industry and international partners and keep building a campus where students can thrive and compete globally,” she said. 

To further strengthen the quality of education, Rector Nelly emphasized three key strategies: 

Industry partnerships: With more than 2,200 industry partners, we actively engage them to build long-term collaboration that will enrich our students practical learning experiences and skills that employers looking for. 

Learning beyond the classroom: Through Enrichment Program, students can spend time one year two take one or two available tracks from seven options such as internships, study abroad, entrepreneurship, research, community development, specific independent study, and further study.  The aim is to round out their academic work and make them ready for working life. 

Multi-campus learning: Under the 2+1+1 learning model, students spend one year at another BINUS campus before completing the Enrichment Program. With campuses across the Greater Jakarta area, Bandung, Semarang, Malang, and Medan, the program gives students the opportunity to experience different regions and perspectives during their studies. 

“We believe universities must keep adapting to change through those three strategies so that the education we provide remains relevant. That means we regularly review and refine our approach to teaching and learning, and we actively seek collaboration across sectors. Our goal is to ensure our students graduate with skills that keep pace with industry developments and are ready to take on the challenges of the future,” she added. 

As higher education continues to evolve, BINUS University is committed to ensuring that teaching, learning, and student development continue to respond to the changing needs of industry and society that aligned with the university’s vision of delivering a world-class education and fostering societal impact.
