Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB or Bogor Agricultural University) is an Indonesian state university in Bogor. It was established on September 1, 1963.
History [edit]

It was closed during the Japanese occupation (1942–1945) and reopened in 1947. It was continued as the Facultiet voor Landbouw-wetenschappen. This and the Facultiet der Diergeneskunde (originally the College of Veterinary Medicine (PTKH)) were part of Universiteit van Indonesie, which changed its name to the University of Indonesia in 1950.
In 1963 the Faculty of Agriculture and Faculty of Veterinary Medicine became Bogor Agricultural Institute (IPB), as an independent institution from the University of Indonesia. At the time, IPB consisted of five faculties: Faculty of Agriculture, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Faculty of Fisheries, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, and the Faculty of Forestry.
