Kalimantan Institute of Technology was established to meet the human resource needs of the industry, particularly in the world of Borneo being involved with the Industrial Area Industrial Area Kariangau & Maloy etc..

ITK development is fully supported by the central government through the Ministry of Education, scheduled to begin construction in 2012 and started teaching learning activities in 2014.

Also inseparable Balikpapan State Polytechnic, established in 2004 as a private polytechnics under the auspices of the City Government of Balikpapan and just bearing the title of 'state' of the Ministry of Education. Poltekba alone will be synergized with ITK to deliver technical / technician to meet the needs of the industry in the Industrial Area Kariangau particular and Indonesia in general.

Hopefully Institute of Technology & Polytechnic Balikpapan Kalimantan can be a powerhouse of education and industrial progress in Borneo and Indonesia.

Adequate infrastructure, ITS Ready to Establish Kalimantan Institute of Technology

LENSAINDONESIA.COM: Kalimantan Institute of Technology (ITK) in Aberdeen is now ready to set up. Section, Sepuluh November Institute of Technology (ITS) Surabaya has been appointed by the central government to assist in the establishment. While ITB believed to establishment of the Institute of Technology in Lampung, the ITS group also conducted a survey to Samarinda. A series of activities carried out, before the ITS conducted a survey to obtain primary and secondary data, beginning with the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to-2 in the Office of the Governor of East Kalimantan and study visits to the University Mulawarman. In the survey, the Joang Reef is located about eight miles to the north of the city of Balikpapan are also included in the assessment list. It was intended to prepare the Feasibility Study will be used as a reference in the construction of the campus ITK."ITS is not limited to complete the Feasibility Study report, but also the duty of escorting the establishment of ITK to operate in conducting lectures," said ITS Rector, Prof Dr Ir Yogi Tri Yuwono, while delivering a speech at the Samarinda FGD, Sunday (4/12/2011 ). According to Mr. Tri Yogi, Feasibility Study report to be completely full so it can be used by contractors and consultants ITK development. The report must be submitted to the Director General of Higher Education (Higher Education) Ministry of Education by the end of December 2011. Meanwhile, in 2012, in Karang Joang, campus construction will begin with the state budget funds. "I hope that ITK can accept new students and conduct classes in 2013/2014," please him.Meanwhile, the preparation of the FS team leader, Prof. Dr. Ir Sulistijono DEA said the provincial government of East Kalimantan (Kalimantan provincial government) has been preparing the land for construction of the campus ITK. "Already available land area of ​​sixty acres," said Sulistijono who is also the Dean of the Faculty of Industrial Technology ITS. For that, he said, about 140 acres are poised to be released to meet the needs of the campus area of ​​two hundred acres ITK. In particular, the construction of the campus will be done in stages over five years. Sulistijono said, government support and component communities in East Kalimantan heavily in the preparation of the establishment of ITK. "In two FGDs conducted in Balikpapan and Samarinda, 99 percent agreed the establishment of ITK in Balikpapan," he explained.In fact, according to Sulistijono, some elements of the people there claimed ITK is 'set in stone' and must be fought. Such support is realized with the ability Provincial Government and City Government (Government) to set up the matching funds Balikpapan ITK establishment.

Balikpapan, If you had only known the presence of the Institute of Technology just around each island of Java, but from 2012 this college (PT) such as the type of Institut Teknologi Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) and the Surabaya Institute of Technology (ITS) will exist in a number of areas such as Borneo and Sumatra and in 2012 was confirmed attendees Kalimantan Institute of Technology (ITK) in East Kalimantan (kaltim) precisely in the city of Balikpapan.It is said to be the Minister of Education, Prof.. DR. Ir. Muhammad Nuh, when he inaugurated in Balikpapan Balikpapan became California State Polytechnic Balikpapan, Friday (06/01).According to the minister, during this PT kinds Institute of Technology is located just around the island of Java, while the public interest to choose the type that is very high PT termausk among students and high school graduates in Balikpapan Kalimantan high perhuruan Generally choose it, because it has not had so we support the efforts of the provincial government East Kalimantan (Kalimantan) with Balikpapan city government to build ITK.'' In 2012, this will ITK tone in Balikpapan despite accepting new students can start in 2014, but you can bet that will be built in Balikpapan ITK over an area of ​​300 ha including the East Kalimantan provincial government's land area of ​​60 hectares,'' said Muhammad Nuh, interrupted inauguration speech in between Balikpapan State Polytechnic.To realize ITK in Balikpapan Muhammad Nuh central states will be poured funds of Rp 400 billion from the state budget."For a start we will lighten Rp. 55 billion and it is for the construction of some physical including office space and a space kulaih although the funds can not be filled later to build ITK facilities including laboratories," he said.The presence of ITK in Balikpapan is expected later membantru many college students who have kind of the Institute of Technology as fore expertise in treknologi increasingly necessary, by her presence will be more technology instritut big city outside Java, including in Balikpapan, which is the only Institute of Technology in Borneo .According to the Minister of Education, ITK construction will begin this year and is targeted to last a year, and in 2014 was able to do the teaching and learning process in ITK, this decision is not yet final, as it waits decline decree (SK) ITK establishment directly from President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) , only the president has given sinyak pack will support the presence of ITK in Balikpapan.'' I had to report to his President, I caught the hint, it's not readily apparent rejection, he could not agree at all, we are waiting for his decree, because the establishment of PT SK Institute of Technology should be the type of president, instead of the minister,'' explained Muhammad Noah.Another certainty, it set up a fund of Rp 55 billion from the allocation of the Directorate General of Higher Education (DG Education) this year, as the initial capital such as land clearing and construction of some facilities is urgent ITK although it has not been able to fund memenuhgi ITK needs that should be better than ITB and ITS.ITK even projected to exceed two institutes that already exist in Indonesia, namely the Surabaya Institute of Technology (ITS) and the Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), for the two institutes was when built there earlier but unlike ITK fund so that the fund will first new build facilities so the ITB and ITS have direct physical development needs at the time, when the ITB area of ​​land only 180 ha, while ITK asked to have doubled from ITB ie 300 ha.'' I say not enough because ideally in developed countries, including Indonesia, the average graduating engineers and other experts as much as 20 thousand from the number of students who graduated that year but we can not as you wish it,'' said the former Rector of ITS Surabaya.The government has targeted a graduate engineer in 2015 could reach 15 percent, up 4 percent, the current ITS passed only 4 thousand / per year and only 6 thousand ITB graduates / year means new 10 thousand, so it's still less than 10 thousand, he explained .To achieve that, it hopes to offer three scenarios ranging from the expansion of technological institutes, private menegerikan step into the country, until the new set up, ITK is in order to meet that number and this year we created an Institute of Technology in Sumatra.Balikpapan Mayor Rizal Effendi, SE, in his presentation on the plan in Balikpapan ITK development directly in front of minister of education and culture as well as the Director General of Higher Education Djoko Santoso, rector of ITS Triyogi Yuwono, some rectors in East Kalimantan, Muspida elements, including former Balikpapan Mayor Imdaad Hamid and Tjutjup Suparna, explains the success of local government preparedness plan."The initial capital for the acquired land amounting to Rp 6.5 billion (USD 1.5 billion from the provincial budget and Rp 5 billion from the city budget), existing utilities and infrastructure, water supply and electricity Kariangau will be available along with the construction of power plants 200 MW Industrial Area Kariangau (CIC), for which we are ready to accept the challenge, "said Rizal Effendi.Respond to this ability, the Minister M Nuh directly ask certainty and readiness Balikpapan City Government and the Provincial Government of East Kalimantan related physical development and other permits."While licensing is our PT from the Ministry of Education and Culture, I wanted to take care of local government licensing, ranging from IMB and all the necessary set up (ITK) is," he said.The idea of ​​the establishment of ITK matured through Focus Group Discussion (FGD) by the ITS team last November, the team is making feasibility study (FS) to conclude eight majors to be established in the first phase, consisting of mechanical engineering, electrical, industrial, civil engineering, and environment and there are other areas such as science, mathematics, physics, and chemistry, when the first batch is expected to follow as many as 320 students in which each department of 40 people with 6 professors and will certainly continue to grow., explained the Director-General of Education High Djoko Santoso.It is said Djoko, after agreement on the establishment of ITK MoU between the central and local, the ball is now in the hands of local (municipal government and the provincial government Balikpapan East Kalimantan) have agreed land supply."We hope that, once completed the physical planning can also be directly run, if I could get a thousand hectares wants," he said.Governor Awang Faroek Ishak said the new admissions will even start this year, before the physical building ITK stands, the first batch of students can be deposited first enrolled at another campus, I've talked to Mr. Wali (Rizal Effendi) make a lodgement students.The governor also plans to ship 120 prospective teachers as school pupils to Germany so that if the building is completed in late 2013, ITK has been able to operate, but he hopes that if ITK courses tailored to the needs of East Kalimantan aka tone then certainly in oil refineries, coal, oil, and more.

And this year the government has agreed to build a campus ITK.The role taken by ITS to conduct a feasibility study on the possibility of establishing a new state institute of technology corridor of Sumatra and Borneo is the belief of the Ministry of Education and Culture. It could be argued, the development of ITK are planned to be built in the city of Balikpapan is one of concern for trustworthy ITS Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Indonesia's Economic Development (MP3EI).He also hopes the campus ITS still working to create experts in the fields of oil and gas, agriculture and plantations. "ITS Kaltim need to form a partnership with human resources," said Awang.For according to Awang, the number of human resources in the field of technology is still relatively small. While the potential for oil and gas industry, mining, agriculture, and even a very large plantation in Kalimantan."We are ready to help whatever it takes. We will build ITK with methods that are completely new. Faculty to be established also by a case study in the area of ​​Borneo, "said Rector of ITS.In this visit, Awang explains, there are two alternatives in building ITK. Namely, the establishment of the faculty is really new or Polytechnic Balikpapan (Poltekba) will be merged into ITK."On the other hand, the University Mulawarman located in Samarinda was declared ready if faculty and techniques taken into ITK," said Awang.In response, the Rector of ITS as reported www.its.ac.id states, there is still uncertainty about the scenario that will be taken to ITK. "It'll be like the ITB which is the release of UI engineering faculty or completely new."While Education Minister wants ITK completely new, without melting Poltekba and take Mulawarman University engineering faculty. For more detailed master plan and policy, the Education Minister will soon hold discussions ITK establishment on Saturday (7/1) future at Aberdeen.
