PTKIN Campuses Dominate UI GreenMetric Awards in Yogyakarta

PTKIN (Islamic Public Universities) campuses located in the Yogyakarta region have demonstrated a significant presence by winning numerous awards in the UI GreenMetric rankings announced on September 17, 2026. The UI GreenMetric is an international ranking that assesses universities' commitment to sustainability within their campuses. Universities are evaluated on a wide range of criteria, including environmental considerations, energy efficiency, waste management, water resource utilization, transportation, and education/research. The prominent performance of PTKIN in this ranking suggests that Indonesia's Islamic higher education institutions are not only advancing traditional religious education but also undertaking progressive initiatives in modern environmental issues and sustainability. This is thought to reflect a broader trend in Indonesian higher education towards shifting to sustainable campus operations in line with international standards. Yogyakarta is one of Indonesia's leading academic cities, hosting a multitude of universities. The remarkable achievements of PTKIN within this vibrant educational landscape symbolize the region's academic competitiveness and the growing awareness of sustainability.
