Profile
Based on the Instruction of the Minister of Higher Education and Science of the Republic of Indonesia in August 1962, the President of Universitas Airlangga, through Decree No. Um/251/8/62 dated December 31, 1962, established a committee, namely the “Committee for Investigating the Establishment of the Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences (FIPIA) Universitas Airlangga”. The committee prepared a plan to establish FIPIA Universitas Airlangga, which consisted of four departments: the Department of Mathematics, the Department of Physics, the Department of Biology, and the Department of Chemistry. In relation to the establishment of FIPIA, an idea emerged to add pharmaceutical education and public health education to complement the “Airlangga University Medical Center”, which already had the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Dentistry. This idea was supported by the possibility of utilizing lecture and practicum facilities at the Faculty of Medicine to implement pharmaceutical education. On August 7, 1963, through Rector's Decree No. 1782/8/63, a Sub-Committee for Investigating the Establishment of the Pharmacy Department of FIPIA in Surabaya was formed.
