Parahyangan Catholic University
Parahyangan Catholic University, (Indonesian: Universitas Katolik Parahyangan) abbreviated as UNPAR, is one of the oldest and most prestigious private universities in Indonesia, located in Bandung. The main campus is on Ciumbuleuit street, and other campuses are on Merdeka street, Aceh street and Nias street. Before owning a building on Merdeka street, UNPAR used the "Panti Budaya" building (now a new Bank Indonesia Building) for college activities.
Parahyangan Catholic University was founded in 1955 by the leadership of the Catholic Church in Indonesia at that time through cooperation between the Bishop of Bandung, Pierre Marin Arntz, O.S.C. and Bishop of Bogor, Paternus Nicholas Joannes Cornelius Geise, O.F.M. in response to a lack of highly educated experts to build Indonesia after the War of Independence.
UNPAR has the motto Bakuning Hyang Mrih Guna Santyaya Bhakti which means "Based on the belief in God, pursuing knowledge in devotion to the community".
Parahyangan Catholic University was established on 17 January 1955, under the name of Commerce Academy, as a collaboration between the Bishop of Bandung, Pierre Marin Arntz, O.S.C. with the Bishop of Bogor Prof. Dr Paternus Nicholas Joannes Cornelius Geise, O.F.M. The status of the academy was upgraded to the Parahyangan Socio-Economic College, which later became the Faculty of Economics. On 15 September 1958, the Faculty of Law was opened and, at the same time, changed the institution's name to Parahyangan Catholic College. The foundation of the organising body of the Parahyangan Catholic College was established on 31 October.
The Faculty of Engineering became the third faculty established after opening in 1960 with a major in civil engineering and architectural engineering. A year later, the Social and Political Faculty was opened. Following Law Number 22 of 1961 concerning Higher Education, the institution's name has changed again and become Parahyangan Catholic University.
On 19 April 1962, with the Decree of the Minister of Higher Education and Science Number 50 of 1962, Parahyangan Catholic University was designated as a university with the same status as a State University.
In 1963, university development took precedence, not on increasing faculties but increasing scientific facilities and infrastructure. Then the Institute of Scientific Investigations was established to support the implementation of the Tri Dharma of Universities in general.
In 1981, with the enactment of new regulations on accreditation and the age of accreditation within the Ministry of Education and Culture, then with the Minister's Decree Number 027/0/1981, Parahyangan Catholic University was reaffirmed as an equalised Private University for three years.
