A BRIEF HISTORY

After Indonesia's independence was achieved, the ideals of improving the quality of education and the tendency of people to reach higher education grew. In the decade of the fifties, regional higher education institutions began to appear, responding to the needs of local people.

The dream of establishing a state university or university in Manado, which at that time was the center of government and regional activities for North and Central Sulawesi, can be said to have been pioneered by the existence of the Pinaesaan University which was founded on October 1, 1954 in Tondano, only has one faculty, namely the Faculty of Law. . Together with Permesta University which was founded on September 23, 1957 in Manado, Pinaesaan University is actually the embryo of the future development of Sam Ratulangi University.

Having two universities with private status has not satisfied the taste of the residents (Sumekolah). Therefore, at the initiative of the people of North and Central Sulawesi (military leaders, civilians, and intellectuals), there was unity and determination to realize the establishment of a state university in both regions, which is expected to be the pride of the general public and the people of North Sulawesi. and Central in particular.

As a follow-up, the Manado College (PTM) was established on August 1, 1958, with four faculties, namely:

  1. Faculty of Law,
  2. Faculty of Economics,
  3. Faculty of Letters, and
  4. Faculty of Administration.

These four faculties are the basis for the establishment of PTM (which later became Sam Ratulangi University).

In the same year, in October, PTM changed its name to the University of North-Central Sulawesi, which was abbreviated as UNSUT. Until that stage, the status of this university is still fully private. In the early sixties, the efforts to achieve state status began to show signs. Precisely in 1960, UNSUT changed its short name again to UNISUT (University of North and Central Sulawesi).

History then changed, where based on the Decree of the Minister of PTIP Number 22/1961, dated July 4, 1961, UNISUT was officially in the status of a State University, with five faculties, namely:

  1. Faculty of Law,
  2. Faculty of Economics,
  3. Medical School,
  4. Faculty of Agriculture, and
  5. Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP).

In the period 1961-1965, UNISUT changed its abbreviation again to UNSULUTTENG which also stands for University of North and Central Sulawesi.

Based on the Decree of the President of the Republic of Indonesia Number 277 dated September 14, 1965, the ratification of this public university in Manado, along with its name from the University of North and Central Sulawesi became Sam Ratulangi University, abbreviated UNSRAT. Consists of seven faculties namely:

  1. Medical School,
  2. Faculty of Agriculture,
  3. Faculty of Animal Husbandry,
  4. Faculty of Law and Public Knowledge,
  5. Faculty of Economics,
  6. Faculty of Social Politics, and
  7. Faculty of Engineering

Then, the Faculty of Letters, which was previously private, was inaugurated into Sam Ratulangi University. A year later, 1966, Sam Ratulangi University, again added one more faculty, the Faculty of Fisheries which until 1969, was domiciled in Tahuna. Then he was transferred to Manado and joined Sam Ratulangi University (which later in 1996 became the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences in short FPIK). UNSRAT is divided into 9 faculties. A fairly large number compared to other universities at that time. Its development did not stop. In 1982, the Gorontalo branch of FKIP Manado, became FKIP UNSRAT in Gorontalo (which later stood alone which is now known as the State University of Gorontalo with the last graduates as many as 3037 people in 1992). It was followed by the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences – FMIPA in 1998. While the Postgraduate Program was established in 1985. In 2009 through the approval letter of DIKTI No.212/D/2009 dated 17 February 2009 the Faculty of Public Health was officially established at Sam Ratulangi University and is a the youngest faculty today.

So now Sam Ratulangi University is a state university with eleven faculties and one postgraduate program, namely:

  1. Faculty of Medicine
  2. Faculty of Engineering
  3. Faculty of Agriculture
  4. Faculty of Animal Husbandry
  5. faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science
  6. faculty of Economics
  7. faculty of Law
  8. faculty of Social Science and Political Science
  9. faculty of Literature
  10. Faculty of Math and Science
  11. Faculty of Public Health, and
  12. Postgraduate Faculty

Since receiving the status of a State University in 1961, the highest officials of the University have changed as many as 12 successors as follows:
