Universitas Dirgantara Marsekal Suryadarma

What Universitas Dirgantara Marsekal Suryadarma does

Universitas Dirgantara Marsekal Suryadarma (Unsurya) is an Indonesian private higher education institution founded in 1999 and headquartered within the Halim Perdanakusuma Airport complex in East Jakarta. It is a vertically specialized university whose core proposition is aerospace and aviation education, anchored by seven faculties covering aerospace engineering, aviation management and transport operations (AMTO), law, health sciences, medicine, postgraduate studies, and economics and business. Its primary customers are prospective undergraduate and postgraduate students, with secondary stakeholders including the Indonesian Air Force (TNI AU), airlines, MRO providers, and government research bodies that rely on the institution as a talent and research pipeline.

Unsurya operates a self-developed digital academic stack on top of commodity platforms: an OJS-based journal publishing platform (JOM) running three disciplinary journals, an LMS (Spada), a student information system (Siakad) for both students and lecturers, a student activity portal (Orbit), a prior-learning recognition system (RPL), an IT helpdesk, a digital library (Perpustakaan), and a legal documentation network (JDIH). Teaching is supported by an integrated laboratory complex and physical aircraft including CASA C-212 Aviocar, Dassault Falcon 20, and Marchetti SF-260 used for hands-on aerospace and maintenance training. Research is organized through dedicated study centers covering aerospace design, software engineering, business innovation in aviation, and information technology and data science.

The business model is a hybrid of tuition-driven education and grant/partnership-funded activity. Recurring revenue comes from undergraduate and postgraduate tuition across the seven faculties; supplemental revenue comes from government research grants (notably BRIN) and from industry collaboration with PT Dirgantara Indonesia, GMF AeroAsia, Boeing, Lion Air, and FL Technics, which fund internships, scholarships, and sponsored research. Go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer student recruitment (PMB admissions), supplemented by event-driven industry partnerships and school outreach to aviation-focused vocational high schools. Specific tuition rates are not publicly disclosed.
