NURSE PROFESSION STUDY PROGRAM
A BRIEF HISTORY
The Faculty of Health Sciences was established in an effort to meet the need for higher education in accordance with the demands of society. The State Islamic University (UIN) Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta opens new departments and study programs to support the development of UIN in integrating scientific, Islamic and Indonesian aspects.
The opening of the Faculty of Health Sciences began with the holding of the UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta Senate meeting on December 30, 2002 by considering the importance of opening a new study program in the field of Health. The forum has recommended the establishment of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS).
The establishment of FMHS was initially intended to answer challenges in realizing the concept of Healthy Indonesia 2010 proclaimed by the government which required more nurses (Ners), pharmacists and public health. This is in accordance with UIN’s vision, which is to make UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta a leading higher education institution in integrating scientific, Islamic and Indonesian aspects..
Based on the decision of the Senate, the preparation of proposals for four Study Programs under the auspices of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences was initiated, namely Public Health, Pharmacy, Nursing science and Medicine. The team for preparing the proposal for the establishment of FMHS was chaired by Prof.Dr.(hc), dr.M.K.Tadjudin,Sp.And. from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia who also acted as the Faculty of Trustees at that time. The initiators of the establishment of FKIK at UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta were Prof. Dr. Azyumardi Azra, MA., Prof. Dr. Suwito, MA, Prof. Dr. Abuddin Nata, MA, Drs. H. Achmad Gholib, MA and Drs H. Abdul Shomad. The team for drafting the Nursing Science Study Program proposal was chaired by Mrs. Tien Gartinah, MN.
The Nursing Study Program began with the issuance of a Decree from the Directorate General of Higher Education, Ministry of National Education of the Republic of Indonesia number 1356/DT/2005 dated May 10, 2005 and a Decree from the Director General of Islamic Religious Institutions, Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia number DJ/II /123/2005 dated May 17, 2005. Furthermore, the permit for the Nurse Profession Program was issued in 2014 based on the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Number 13/E/O/2014.
In 2018 the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences was divided into the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine based on the Regulation of the Minister of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia Number 1 of 2018 dated 23 February 2018 concerning the Second Amendment to the Regulation of the Minister of Religion Number 6 of 2013 concerning the Organization and Work Procedures of the Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University Jakarta Rector’s Decree Number 129 of 2003 concerning Organization and Work Procedures, Statutes and Job Descriptions of the State Islamic University (UIN) Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta and Decree of the Chancellor of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta No. 141a of 2018 dated 26 February 2018 regarding the closing of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences and the opening of the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta.
The Faculty of Health Sciences continues to strive to expand its network of collaborations with various hospitals to support the clinical practice learning process for its students. The network hospitals we utilize as facilities for clinical learning include: The Fatmawati Center Education Hospital, designated as the Main Teaching Hospital, along with Marzoeki Mahdi Hospital, the Regional General Hospital (RSUD) of Tangerang Regency, Jakarta Hajj Hospital, Darma Graha Serpong Hospital, Pasar Minggu Hospital, and South Tangerang Hospital, which serve as network hospitals.
