Where the world comes to study

From Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, students cross oceans to study at Universitas Hasanuddin in Makassar, from the bachelor’s degree to the doctorate. They learn alongside Indonesian classmates, pick up the language of the city around them, and leave with degrees recognised beyond Indonesia.

A graduate school with the world in it

This year’s new graduate cohort includes students from many other countries, in master’s and doctoral programmes across the university.
