History

In 1957, a number of West Java Muslim leaders along with some scholars who at that time became members of the Constitutional Assembly of Indonesia, initiated the cadre of leaders of the faqih fiddin for the future. On November 15, 1958, the idea was realized through the establishment of the Perguruan Islam Tinggi (PIT), under the Islamic Education Foundation with the Notary Deed of Lie Kwie Nio, number: 42. The founders listed on the Notarial deed are: Prof. Sjafie Soemardja, dr. H. Chasan Boesoiri, Drs. Ahmad Sadali, Oja Somantri, R. Kosasih, R. Sabri Gandanegara, and Dadang Hermawan. The college is intended to meet the needs of the people of West Java, especially for a higher Islamic college in the midst of various college styles at that time. The establishment of this college was fully supported by the people of West Java through members of the West Java Province legislative assembly.

Initially, lectures were held at the Muslimin Building, Jalan PalasariNo. 1, Bandung. A year later, in 1960, academic activities were transferred to Jalan Abdul Muis. 73 Bandung. In 1967, Perguruan Islam Tinggi (PIT) changed to Bandung Islamic University (UNISBA) led by prof. T. M. Soelaeman, M.Sc., EE. Since 1972, all university activities have been held at the Blue Campus, at Jalan Tamansari no. 1 Bandung, on a land area of 10,808 m2, provided by the Municipal Government of Bandung.

With assistance from Muslims, semi-permanent buildings were built for lecture halls, offices, libraries, academic facilities, Mosque, and multipurpose hall. Due to the increasing number of students and more academic programs, in 1980, the Campus II was built in Ciburial Dago, approximately 7 km from Tamansari Campus. The Campus II was built using a donation from H. Amir Machmud (Minister of Home Affairs at that time).

Since 1987, all academic and student activities have been centered on the Tamansari Campus, while Campus II is used for student boarding activities, scientific meetings, upgrading and training. [3]
