History

In order to participate in educating the nation’s life, Diponegoro University’s Faculty of Engineering made efforts to open new study programs. Especially to open the Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering Study Programs, a Decree of the Diponegoro University Chancellor was issued Number: 144/SK / PT09.3/1981, dated December 19, 1981, concerning the Establishment of a Feasibility Study Team for the Possibility of Opening a New Study Program.

The team was chaired by Ir. Marwoto Kusumopradono and responsible for Ir. Joetata Hadihardaja as the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Diponegoro University. The Feasibility Study Team conducted a comparative study to UGM Yogyakarta in January 1982; to ITB Bandung in March 1982, and in April 1982. In addition, the Feasibility Study Team also visited government agencies in Semarang City, including the Local Government of Dati I, PLN, and BKPMD.

Based on the work of the Study Team, the Rector of Diponegoro University issued Decree No. 158/SK/PT09/1982, dated December 6, 1982, concerning the Opening of the Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Study Programs. Based on this decree, the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering of Diponegoro University took the policy that to accept new students for the 1983/1984 academic year, the Electrical Engineering Study Program was based in the Mathematics Department and the Mechanical Engineering Study Program was based in the Chemical Engineering Department.

In the 1985/1986 academic year, the Electrical Engineering Study Program accepted new students under the Mechanical Engineering Study Program. Starting the 1986/1987 academic year, the Electrical Engineering Study Program fully became a Study Program within the Faculty of Engineering, Diponegoro University in accordance with the Decree of the Director General of Higher Education No. 47/DIKTI/Kep/1986 dated December 26, 1986. The decree applies retroactively that the Electrical Engineering Study Program at the Faculty of Engineering, Diponegoro University was officially established starting in the 1983/1984 academic year.

Since its inception until 1997, Undip Electrical Engineering occupied one of the rooms of the Undip Faculty of Engineering building on Jl. Hayamuruk 5-7 Semarang. The first laboratory was a 3×6 meter room owned by Undip Civil Engineering on Jl. Dr. Sutomo, Kalisari Semarang (behind Kalisari field). Lecture rooms used the Architectural, Civil and Chemical Engineering rooms located on Jl. Hayamwuruk and Jl. Mataram (now Mataram shophouse). The first lecturer of the Electrical Engineering Study Program was Ir. Sulasno. In line with the passage of time, Undip Electrical Engineering developed by getting a lecture hall and weak current laboratory in the Central Java Regional Government assistance building on Jl. Hayamwuruk, while the strong current laboratory used the building behind the Diponegoro mosque. The teaching staff also increased with the presence of Ir. Ngatelan, Ir. Yuningtyastuti, Ir. Sudjadi and others.

In 1998, Undip Electrical Engineering moved to the Tembalang campus, about 10 km south of the old campus. On Undip’s new 350-hectare campus, Electrical Engineering occupies part of Undip’s Faculty of Engineering, with two main three-story buildings, namely building A and building B. Building A is used for lecture rooms, administrative rooms, and libraries, while building B is used for lecture rooms, laboratories, and activity rooms. Building A is used for lecturer rooms, administration rooms, and libraries, while building B is used for lecture halls, laboratories, and student activity rooms. On January 24, 2014, through Mandate Letter Number 66/E.E2/DT/2014, the Director General of Higher Education gave a mandate to the UNDIP Electrical Engineering Department to establish an Electrical Engineering Masters Program. The Department of Electrical Engineering UNDIP received permission to organize the Electrical Engineering Master Program on May 7, 2014 through the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Number 70/E/O/2014, so that starting in the even semester 2013/2014 the Department of Electrical Engineering accepted new students for the Electrical Engineering Master Program. Unlike the Undergraduate Program, the Master of Electrical Engineering Program accepts new students in every semester. The first Chairman of the Master Program in Electrical Engineering was Dr. Ir. Hermawan, DEA and the Secretary of the Master Program was Mohammad Facta, S.T., M.T., Ph.D. Starting in 2014, there are two Study Programs under the Department of Electrical Engineering, namely the Undergraduate Program and the Master Program. The manager of the Undergraduate Program is concurrently the Head and Secretary of the Electrical Engineering Department.
