YARSI University

What YARSI University does

Universitas YARSI is a private Indonesian Islamic university headquartered at Menara YARSI in Cempaka Putih, Central Jakarta, founded in 1967 by the Yayasan Rumah Sakit Islam Indonesia (YARSI Foundation) as Sekolah Tinggi Kedokteran YARSI. It delivers undergraduate, professional, specialist, magister, and doctoral programs across seven faculties (Medicine, Dentistry, Information Technology, Economics and Business, Law, Psychology) and a postgraduate school, totaling 17 accredited study programs for roughly 4,500 students taught by 300+ dosen including 11 Guru Besar (full professors). The university layers mandatory Ruhul Islam coursework across all programs, positioning Islamic-values integration as a core differentiator alongside clinical and biomedical sciences depth.

The technology layer is a 'Smart Campus' stack integrating Sisakad (academic information system), Medinfo (medical faculty system), the LAYAR LMS for e-learning, the YARSI Digital Library with an Islamic Corner (Maktabah), and the YESS library-innovation system, all fronted by a unified Smart Campus portal. Tuition is collected through Bank BRI and Bank Mandiri Virtual Account integrations, and eight wholly-owned research centers (Genetics/Genomics, Halal, E-Health, Herbal, Stem Cell, Telomere, Community Empowerment, and Family Welfare) plus a teaching hospital (Rumah Sakit YARSI, opened 2019) and an LPH halal certification body generate ancillary research, healthcare, and certification revenue.

The business model is predominantly tuition-driven (annual billing, virtual-account payment) supplemented by government research grants, community-service funding, and hospital and halal-certification income. Marketing is direct-to-consumer via the website, Instagram (26.6K followers), online registration portal (pmb.yarsi.ac.id), community events, and academic-competition participation. The institution operates under nonprofit foundation ownership and is governed by Rector Prof. dr. Fasli Jalal, Ph.D., with no venture funding, no IPO, and no public revenue disclosure.
