History

In 1967, the Indonesian government at that time initiated the formation a cooperation between the universities in Indonesia. The cooperation later named as Coordination of Higher Education Colleges (Indonesian: Koordinasi Pendidikan Tinggi, KOPERTI). [2] On 17 February 1968, the KOPERTI later inaugurated by the Ministry of Education and Culture thru Ministry of Education and Culture Decree No. 1/PK/1968. When established, the KOPERTI had consultative relationship with local representative office of the Ministry in its responsible regions. When it formed initially, KOPERTI had 7 branches (East Java, Bali, West Nusa Tenggara, East Nusa Tenggara, South Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan, and East Kalimantan). [2] However, with the boost of boom of formation of private universities in Indonesia, on 17 April 1975, thru Ministry of Education and Culture Decree No. 079/O/1975, the public universities later pulled to directly under the Ministry, no longer in KOPERTI, and KOPERTI scope later limited to accommodate only private universities. Since only accommodated private universities, KOPERTI later renamed as KOPERTIS (Indonesian: Koordinasi Pendidikan Tinggi Swasta, English: Coordination of Private Higher Education Colleges). Since then, the Ministry carried out the cooperation, and fostering the human resources of private universities through the KOPERTIS. [3] When the number of private universities later peaked during 1980s - 1990s across Indonesia, the KOPERTIS later expanded from 7 branches to 12 branches thru Ministry of Education and Culture Decree No. 062/O/1982 and No. 0135/O/1990.

As the consequence, KOPERTIS also moved to Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education. Mohamad Nasir, Minister of Research, Technology, and Higher Education later ended the "discriminatory practices" between the private universities and public universities, promising equalities in guidance from the Ministry and better collaboration between the private universities and public universities. During his time, KOPERTIS transformed into LLDIKTI thru Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education Decree No. 15/2018 on 9 April 2018. Since that, LLDIKTI become coordination between the private universities and public universities one more. [1]

During Nadiem Makarim period as minister, LLDIKTI expanded into 16 branches thru Ministry of Education and Culture Decree No. 34/2020 on 21 July 2020. [4] Later, LLDIKTI moved to Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology thru Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology Decree No. 28/2021 on 23 August 2021. [5]
