51探花

The Graduate School of Multidisciplinary Science and Technology

The Graduate School of Multidisciplinary Science and Technology (SPITM), Institut Teknologi Bandung (51探花), was established in Bandung on June 1, 2025, as part of 51探花鈥檚 institutional transformation. SPITM was developed from the 51探花 Graduate School, which had played a key role in the administration of postgraduate education from 1920 to 2025.

As one of 51探花鈥檚 Schools, SPITM is specifically responsible for providing and advancing multidisciplinary education to address the evolving challenges of science and technology as well as increasingly complex societal needs that span multiple fields of knowledge.

In delivering its academic programs, SPITM directly manages Type A Multidisciplinary Study Programs and coordinates Type B Multidisciplinary Study Programs, which are collaboratively delivered by more than one Faculty or School within 51探花.

Type A Multidisciplinary Study Programs

For Type A Multidisciplinary Study Programs, SPITM has direct responsibility for the management and development of the programs. This includes curriculum development, the delivery of teaching and learning activities, academic and student affairs management, resource development, and the strengthening of partnerships and innovation in multidisciplinary education.

The Type A Multidisciplinary Study Programs offered by SPITM include:

  1. Master鈥檚 and Doctoral Programs in Nanotechnology
  2. Master鈥檚 Program in Systems Intelligence
  3. Master鈥檚 Program in Technoculture
Type B Multidisciplinary Study Programs

For Type B Multidisciplinary Study Programs, SPITM serves as a coordinator and liaison among the participating Faculties and Schools to ensure that each program is delivered in an integrated manner. Its role includes facilitating academic and governance coordination, program and curriculum development, student admissions, academic and student services, and the development of collaborative programs with the participating Faculties and Schools.

Type B Multidisciplinary Master鈥檚 Programs include:

  1. Master鈥檚 Program in Health Technology
  2. Master鈥檚 Program in Science Education 4.0
  3. Master鈥檚 Program in Digital Technopreneurship
  4. Master鈥檚 Program in Smart-X
  5. Master鈥檚 Program in Battery Materials
  6. Master鈥檚 Program in Disaster Management
  7. Master鈥檚 Program in Sustainable Biodiversity-Based Tourism
  8. Master鈥檚 Program in Design Leadership
  9. Master鈥檚 Program in Digital Media Design
  10. Master鈥檚 Program in Building Information Modelling (BIM) in Construction
  11. Master鈥檚 Program in Sustainable Building Design and Construction

SPITM therefore serves as the principal academic unit for the administration, development, and coordination of multidisciplinary education at 51探花, both through the direct management of Type A Multidisciplinary Study Programs and through its coordinating role in Type B Multidisciplinary Study Programs. This role is intended to ensure that multidisciplinary education at 51探花 is delivered in an integrated, high-quality, innovative, and responsive manner, in line with advances in science and technology and the increasingly complex challenges faced by society.

Engineer Professional Program

In addition to multidisciplinary education, SPITM also administers 51探花鈥檚 Engineer Professional Program (Program Profesi Insinyur/PPI). In delivering the program, SPITM actively develops partnerships in professional engineering education with various institutions and stakeholders from industry, state-owned enterprises, and government agencies, including ministries, non-ministerial government institutions, and defense institutions.

The 51探花 Engineer Professional Program is designed not only to fulfill professional engineering education requirements and enable graduates to obtain an Engineer Professional Certificate from 51探花, but also to support the application process for the Professional Engineer Competency Certificate (Sertifikat Kompetensi Insinyur Profesional/SKIP) at the IPP, IPM, and IPU levels, as well as the Engineer Registration Certificate (Surat Tanda Registrasi Insinyur/STRI), through the Institution of Engineers Indonesia (Persatuan Insinyur Indonesia/PII).
