President University (Indonesian: Universitas Presiden) is an international private university located in the Bekasi Regency, West Java, Indonesia, the largest industrial area in Southeast Asia. PresUniv was founded in 2001 by national entrepreneur Dr. (HC) SD Darmono,[1] the founder of the Jababeka Group and Prof. Dr. Juwono Sudarsono, an academic who has held various ministerial positions such as Minister of Environment, Minister of Education and Culture to Minister of Defense.

PresUniv is an international university, which is why it offers lectures in English as part of its academic program. Furthermore, some of PresUniv's lecturers are also foreign lecturers, and about 10% of the students are international students from different countries who come from all over the world. The rest of the Indonesian students who study at PresUniv come from various provinces.

Lecturers can do research, and students can do internships in these companies.
Since 2018, PresUniv has been accredited A from the National Accreditation Board for Higher Education (BAN-PT)[2] and at the same time became the 78th university in Indonesia to be accredited A, together with several other state universities. Currently, PresUniv has 17 undergraduate programs and 2 postgraduate programs. 50% of the study programs at PresUniv have also been accredited A, and the rest B.
