Review of Community Developement HMM ITB

The history of the Bandung Institute of Technology...

The history of the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, at the time of the ruling community's initiative. The initial purpose of its establishment was to meet the needs of technical personnel who became difficult because of the disruption of relations between the Netherlands and its colonies in the archipelago, as a result of the outbreak of the First World War. Te Bandoeng Technische Hoogeschool (often abbreviated as TH te Bandoeng, TH Bandung, or THS) was established on July 3, 1920 as the first high school in the Dutch East Indies. [note 6] TH Bandung was opened for the first time with one faculty namely
de Faculteit van Technische Wetenschap which has only one part, de afdeeling der Weg-en Waterbouwkunde. ITB campus is the place where the president
The first Indonesian, Soekarno, won his engineering degree in Civil Engineering. The study period to become an engineer is four years. Until the closure in 1942, THS had three parts (afdeeling) namely Civil (1920), Chemistry (1940), Machinery and Electricity (1941) [note 7]; but the last two parts have not had the chance to pass an engineer.
During the Japanese occupation, attempts to reopen TH Bandung lectures were explicitly rejected, but research activities in laboratories on the TH Bandung campus were permitted. The laboratory community is called the Institute of Tropical Scientific Research, which is manned by many TH Bandung academic staff.
