In addition to Diploma and Bachelor’s programs, Telkom University has also established Postgraduate Programs. Currently, Telkom University offers four Master’s degree programs, consisting of Master of Management, Master of Electrical Engineering, Master of Informatics Engineering, and Master of Industrial Engineering. In the future, Telkom University plans to expand further by opening Doctoral Programs, with the hope that the Tri Dharma of Higher Education can be carried out through various levels of education, thereby providing greater benefits to society, from upstream to downstream.

The Master of Management program was established in 1993 based on the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia No. 70a/D/0/1993; this program is managed under the Faculty of Economics and Business. In 1999, the Master of Electrical Engineering program was established under the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, based on the Decree of the Directorate General of Higher Education, Ministry of National Education No. 429/DIKTI/Kep/1999. In 2009, the Master of Informatics Engineering program was established under the Faculty of Informatics, based on the Decree of the Directorate General of Higher Education No. 424/D/T/2009. Most recently, in 2018, the Master of Industrial Engineering program was established under the Faculty of Industrial Engineering, based on Decree No. 960/SK/BAN-PT/Akred/M/IV/2018.

As part of the development of Telkom University’s Postgraduate Programs, on December 20, 2019, the Postgraduate and International Class Unit was formed under the Directorate of Postgraduate and Advanced Learning (PSAL), in accordance with the Organizational Structure and Work Procedures of Telkom University, Number: KEP.1457/00/DGS-HK01/YPT/2019. Previously, all governance and coordination between study programs fell directly under the authority of the PSAL Director. The Postgraduate and International Class Unit was established with several objectives, including:

1. Standardizing services, facilities, infrastructure, and learning standards;

2. Developing multidisciplinary master’s and doctoral programs relevant to real-world development issues faced by society as well as advances in science and technology;

3. Publishing research results that contribute to the advancement of science and technology; and

4. Strengthening networking and cooperation with both internal and external stakeholders.

The underlying idea is that educating human resources should not be limited to equipping them with the ability to apply technology in the manufacturing sector but should also enable them to produce innovative technologies. At present, human resources with such qualifications remain scarce. Innovation requires the ability to conduct in-depth analysis of technology. Producing human resources capable of integrating technology into real-world problems necessitates education at the Master’s (S2) level. Master’s education serves as a continuation of Bachelor’s education, with the expectation that through this level, universities in Indonesia can produce graduates who master the state of the art and best practices in their respective fields. Master’s graduates are expected to possess specialization in their area of expertise and have the competence to design and innovate new solutions to improve societal well-being.

With the aim of producing human resources capable of applying and generating appropriate technology in an integrated manner, the Master of Industrial Engineering program at Telkom University was established. This program consistently strives to provide graduates who meet the needs of the industry.
