International Class Academic Office (ICAO) was founded at the end of 2015 to organize International Classes. During its first years, ICAO worked closely with 6 departments offering the international class programs. These six departments were ICT Business, Business Administration, Information System, Industrial Engineering and Telecommunication Engineering. Through the academic years, ICAO facilitates teaching-learning activities, holds Midterm & Final Exams and builds networks with Telkom University’s partners to develop international exposure programs such as EduTrip, Winter School, Summer School, Student Exchange, Joint Degree, and Double Degree. ICAO takes pride in its role to handle and strengthens these special programs and services where they not only serve the students and lecturers, but also strive to become an integral part of the students’ character development.
Throughout the years, the number of departments offering international class programs has steadily increased. By 2019, a total of nine departments had opened their international class programs, including Communication Studies, Visual Communication Design, and Electrical Engineering, which were the three newest additions at that time. In the following years, the growth continued. Within the last five years, two more departments, Accounting and Information Technology, joined the program, further expanding the international class network. As of 2025, eleven departments at Telkom University offer international class programs, reflecting the university’s strong commitment to providing global learning opportunities for its students.
