The Symbol and the Motto of State University of Jakarta

State University of Jakarta (Indonesian: Universitas Negeri Jakarta, commonly abbreviated as UNJ) is a public university in Jakarta, Indonesia. Founded in 1964 as the Jakarta Institute of Teaching and Education (IKIP Jakarta), it was later converted into a state university by the Indonesian government in 1999.

The university has four campuses in East and South Jakarta, with the main campus being located in Rawamangun. Divided into 8 faculties, the university had a graduating class of 3,906 in 2016.

Early 2021, UNJ obtained Excellent Accreditation. Based on the Decree of BAN-PT No. 45/SK/BAN-PT/Akred/PT/II/2021, it is stated that the State University of Jakarta meets the requirements for an Excellent Accreditation rating with a score of 366. The Accreditation status is valid from February 2, 2021, until February 2, 2026.

Prior to the independence of Indonesia, the Dutch East Indies had established STOVIA, initially a medical school and later expanding into multiple fields upon independence and its renaming to Universitas Indonesia. The university had multiple branches in Jakarta, Bogor, Surabaya, Makassar and Bandung, most of which eventually split into their own universities. One of these branches was the Faculty of Teaching and Education. Around 1963, there was also another institute - the Teachers' Education Institute (Institusi Pendidikan Guru), which resulted in dualism in the young country's education of teachers. Due to this, Sukarno ordered a merge between the faculty and the institute to form the Institute of Teaching and Education (Institut Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, IKIP) through a Presidential Decree.^[2] Later on, the merged body split into its own university, effective on 16 May 1964.^[3][4] Latief Hendraningrat, former head of the Indonesian Army's Commanders and Staff School and later a brigadier general, was appointed as the first rector and served for just a year.^[5]

In 1968, the institute established the Labschool High School (SMA Labschool) to act as a school laboratorium where teachers in training could practice their teaching and educational research could be conducted.^[6] The institute was converted into a university on 4 August 1999, and it had since expanded into teaching non-education subjects.^[7]

In 2017 the university was put under investigation for high levels of plagiarism, resulting in the removal of its previous rector by the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education (Kemenristekdikti).^[8] In the same year, it was ranked 26th out from 3,244 higher educational institutes in Indonesia by Kemenristekdikti.^[9]
