Salemba UI, Public university campus in Salemba, Jakarta, Indonesia.
Salemba UI is a medical campus located in Jakarta that houses the Medicine and Dentistry faculties alongside Cipto Mangunkusumo National Hospital. This proximity allows students to learn in direct connection with a major teaching hospital.
The campus originated from STOVIA medical school in 1898, which established the first formal medical education in Indonesia. This institution later became the foundation for what developed into the modern Universitas Indonesia.
The campus brings together medical students from across Indonesia who balance their studies with connections to their home regions and communities. Walking through the grounds, you notice how this mix of backgrounds shapes the social spaces and student activities.
The campus sits near public transportation lines, making it easy for students and visitors to move around Jakarta without a personal vehicle. This location also means the campus is accessible from different parts of the city.
The campus maintains a direct working connection with the large teaching hospital next door, which brings medical students into patient care settings from early in their training. This close integration makes clinical preparation more hands-on and practical than at many other medical schools.
