Kalimantan Institute of Technology (Indonesian:Institut Teknologi Kalimantan, abbreviated asITK) is a technological-focused public university based in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia.[2][3][4]
ITK was created in 2012 as part of the Master Plan for Acceleration and Expansion on Indonesia's Economic Development (MP3EI).[2][5] At the time, East Kalimantan had one university,Mulawarman University. ITK started collaborating with Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology. with the latter also providing ITK’s first campuses.[2][6] Despite that, ITK had already started accepting students in 2012, with 100 students from East Kalimantan exclusively as its first-year batch.
Originally, only five majors were available to the students:electrical engineering,machine engineering,naval engineering,chemical engineering, andcivil engineering. By 2013, the number of majors available increased, and ITK started accepting students from outside East Kalimantan.[2][7]
In 2014, ITK officially became a public university, and, by 2015, ITK started operating from its Balikpapan campus.[2][8]
