Artha Wacana Christian University (UKAW, Kupang)

Artha Wacana Christian University was formed in 1985 on the grounds of a closed theological seminary.

These postgraduate study programs address the increasing needs of the churches and society in East Nusa Tenggara province, East Indonesia, and Timor Leste, our neighboring country. Through these postgraduate study programs, we hope to advance the quality of ministerial skills for pastors of the churches in East Nusa Tenggara and the churches in the surrounding islands.

This university has its roots in an institution of theological education founded by two mainline Protestant churches in the East Nusa Tenggara province of Indonesia. Nowadays, this university has 5 other faculties besides the Theological Faculty. The faculties are education, law, agriculture, economy, and fishery. AWCU also developed two postgraduate programs, Master of Christian Leadership and Master of Theology. These programs are related to the Theological Faculty.
