Abd Karim, Prof. Dr. Soetomo Tjokronegoro, Mr. Ali Budiharjo, Poerwodarminta, Mr. Soetikno, Ir.TH. A. Resink, DR. Soemitro Djojohadikusumo, Noegroho, Soejatmiko, H.B. Jassin, Mochtar Avin, L. Damais, A.Djoehana, and Nona Roekmini Boediardjo Singgih.

Studies were conducted in 1946 by two committees.

The first committee, in charge of investigating how to invigorate life sciences in Indonesia, had the following members:

  1. Dr. Leimena
  2. IR. Abd. Karim
  3. Prof. Dr. Soetomo Tjokronegoro
  4. Mr. Ali Budihardjo
  5. Ir. Th. A. Resink
  6. Dr. Soemitro Djojohadikusumo

The second committee, in charge of motivating stimulating business activity, consisted of:

  1. Nugroho

  3. H.B.Jassin
  4. Muchtar Avin
  5. A. Djoehana
  6. Nona Budihardjo
  7. Nona Rukmini Singgih

In late 1946 short courses were established. On around October 1949, in response to demand from 400 high school graduates in Jakarta who did not want to attended Universiteit Indonesia of the Dutch colonial government, PMIK announced the opening of a National Academy comprising five faculties: Social Studies, Economics and Politics; Biology, Mathematics and Physics, Letters, and English Literature.[6][7]

The term academy, rather than university was chosen to avoid colonial words during the Indonesian war of independence. Lectures began on October 15, 1949. On December 22, 1949, the Ministry of Education and Culture, then located in Yogyakarta, provided full recognition for the National Academy.

On 1 September 1954 through a deed by Mr. R. Soewandi, the National Academy was renamed the National University. For its support during the war of independence, in 1959, Indonesia's first president, Sukarno, bestowed the title "University Of Struggle" (Universitas Perjuangan).[8][9][10][11][12]
