HISTORY

BAH (Bachelor in Animal Husbandry) was established on May 10th, 1993, based on the Decree of the Dirjen DIKTI Number 311/DIKTI/KEP/1993. BAH was established to accelerate the livestock development in Bengkulu Province because of its potential in the plantation sectors (palm, rubber, etc.). BAH currently expands its scope in order to keep up with the local and global issues. In other words, BAH is a study programme which is applicable to various fields related to all domestic animals. It also provides opportunities to develop livestock production.

The purpose of the BAH programme is to enable graduates to become managers, entrepreneurs, community leaders, implementers, and developers of animal husbandry science. BAH graduates master the basic knowledge of animal husbandry in order to become leaders in both government agencies and private companies. BAH graduates are also expected to have an entrepreneurial spirit in establishing and developing a business in the livestock sectors, either individually or cooperatively. As the community leaders, BAH graduates are expected to be active in the community development, either in animal husbandry or related fields. In the future, BAH graduates will have an important and strategic role as “agents of change” for livestock development as well as the “promotion agents” for the further quality student candidates.

BAH has been accredited A since 2018 based on the Decree of BAN PT Number 864/SK/BAN-PT/Akred/S/III/2018. Currently, BAH has submitted a Conversion Supplementary Instrument (henceforth ISK- Instrumen Suplemen Konversi) to BAN PT to convert its rating from the A rating system to the excellent ranking system. In 2022, BAH was the only study programme that won the Independent Campus Competition Program (henceforth PKKM -Program Kompetisi Kampus Merdeka) grant. This achievement is expected to accelerate BAH in gaining international recognition.
