UNPRI’s Outstanding National Private University Debut in the QS Asia University Rankings 2026, Securing the 4th Position in North Sumatra
A Proof of UNPRI’s Global Capacity in Academic Standards and Institutional Impact
UNPRI, Medan - Universitas Prima Indonesia (UNPRI) once again recorded a significant milestone in Indonesian higher education. For the first time, UNPRI officially entered the QS Asia University 2026 international rankings, one of the most prestigious university assessment systems for global university rankings in the Asia region. In this inaugural debut, UNPRI immediately secured the 4th best university position in North Sumatra, confirming its reputation as an excellent national private campus capable of competing globally. This significant achievement reflects UNPRI's transformation towards international standards in the era of modern education.
The QS Asia University 2026 ranking is awarded based on several key indicators such as academic reputation, employer reputation, research quality and citations, number of international collaborations, proportion of foreign students and faculty, and global engagement capacity in news and achievements. UNPRI's entry into this prestigious ranking is a monumental achievement under the leadership of Rector Prof. Dr. Chrismis Novalinda Ginting, M.Kes., AIFO-K., who prioritized UNPRI's transformation toward a World Class University 2026 through modern academic governance and an international-standard research ecosystem.
In recent years, UNPRI has strengthened campus internationalization through strategic cooperation with foreign universities and various global companies. Programs such as international internship, visiting professor, student mobility, student exchange, joint research, international guest lectures, and international conferences are regularly held to enrich the academic capacity of students and lecturers. Not many people know that over its 24 years of operation, UNPRI has been home to hundreds of foreign students studying in 57 study programs, making UNPRI one of Indonesia's multicultural higher education destinations with complete, modern facilities and a cozy, smoke-free campus atmosphere.
As a leading campus in North Sumatra, UNPRI has 8 faculties (UPPS) covering Diploma, Bachelor, Professional, Master, Specialist, and Doctoral levels, namely the Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry (FKKG), Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery (FKK), Faculty of Health Sciences (FIK), Faculty of Psychology (FPSI), Faculty of Law (FH), Faculty of Economics (FE), Faculty of Teacher Training & Education (FKIP), and Faculty of Agro Technology (FASGRO), along with one PSDKU campus located in Pekanbaru. This aggressive commitment to academic development is what has made UNPRI's performance in the QS indicators stronger year by year.
UNPRI is also a pioneer with several first achievements in North Sumatra:
- The first socio-technopreneurship campus.
- The first PSDKU outside the province, located in Pekanbaru, Riau Province.
- The first Psychology Study Program.
- The first Master of Nursing Program.
- The first Agro Technology Program based on palm oil plantations with excellent accreditation.
- The first Business and Professional Communication Mandarin Language Study Program.
- The highest number of self-owned teaching hospitals.

In addition, UNPRI is also the campus with the first Excellent Doctoral Program in Law, the first Primary Care Family Medicine Specialist (KKLP) Program, and the first Excellent Architecture Study Program in North Sumatra, demonstrating UNPRI's dominance in higher education innovation.
UNPRI's contribution to research and innovation also strengthens its position among global universities. The campus is entrusted as the Stem Cell Research Center, the Health Development Center by LLDIKTI Region I North Sumatra, and the first Hajj, Umrah, and Religion Studies Center in Indonesia established outside a religion-based campus. The presence of these various research centers further affirms UNPRI as the driving force behind scientific, technological, and health advancements in North Sumatra, a key factor supporting the internationalization and research citation scores in the QS Asia University Rankings 2026.
UNPRI's entry into the QS Asia University Rankings 2026 is proof that the campus is not only growing rapidly but is also capable of raising the standard of North Sumatra's education to an international level. With the grand vision of achieving international accreditation and becoming a World Class University by 2026, UNPRI is committed to producing graduates who are adaptive, innovative, and globally competitive. From Medan, UNPRI proves itself to be a center for ideas, research, and innovation that is the pride of Indonesia. (Yd / Datok Yan Djuna – Marketing Communications UNPRI).
