The story

The college was started because high school graduates in Lampung were going to Java or Palembang to continue their studies. The college was realised by two committees:

Committee Establishment and Expansion of Secondary School which turned into a Committee Establishment and Expansion of Secondary School and Faculty, chaired by Zainal Abidin Pagar Alam and secretary Tjan Djiit Soe.

Preparatory Committee for the Establishment of Higher Education Foundation Lampung initiated by Hilman Hadikusuma and Alhusniduki Hamim on 20 August 1959, chaired by Nadirsjah Zaini, M.A. and Hilman Hadikusuma as secretary. The two committees merged into the Foundation Trustees College of Lampung. The foundation was formed with faculties of Economics, Law, and Social.
