Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,

Greetings of peace and prosperity,

Praise be to Almighty God for His blessings and guidance that enable the Sekolah Tinggi Perikanan dan Kelautan Matauli (Matauli College of Fisheries and Marine Science – STPKM) to continuously grow, innovate, and contribute to the advancement of higher education in the field of marine and fisheries science in Indonesia.

In this era of rapid advancement in science, technology, and digital transformation, education must adapt to global changes driven by innovation and information technology. STPKM is fully committed to developing a digitally integrated, modern, and future-oriented academic system, empowering students with the knowledge, skills, and values required to face the challenges of the 21st century.

Along with the modernization of the global fisheries industry, the sector is rapidly transforming toward a more sustainable, efficient, and technology-driven model. In response, STPKM prepares its graduates to compete and excel in the global marine and fisheries industry by strengthening their scientific foundation, technical competence, and adaptability to automation, digitalization, and the blue economy framework.

At the same time, globalization and climate change have posed major challenges to the sustainability of marine and fisheries resources worldwide. STPKM places these issues at the heart of its research and academic activities—encouraging students and researchers to understand marine ecosystems comprehensively, develop innovative solutions for climate mitigation, and contribute to the sustainable management of Indonesia’s coastal and marine resources.

The advancement of marine and fisheries science and technology, supported by leading global education systems, continues to inspire STPKM to strengthen its academic governance, research excellence, and community engagement. We are committed to developing a world-class higher education institution that embraces global standards while maintaining a strong foundation in national identity, local wisdom, and maritime culture.

With the spirit of “Moving Forward and Striving for Impactful Excellence,” STPKM is dedicated to producing competent, competitive, and service-minded graduates—individuals who are ready to excel, ready to innovate, and ready to contribute to the progress of Indonesia’s maritime and fisheries sector. Through collaboration, innovation, and integrity, STPKM aims to become a center of excellence in marine and fisheries education that creates real impact both nationally and globally.

Finally, we extend our sincere gratitude to all stakeholders—government agencies, industry partners, research institutions, alumni, and the entire academic community of STPKM—for their continuous support and collaboration. May this website serve as an informative and inspiring platform for all who share our vision of advancing sustainable marine and fisheries education in Indonesia.

Wassalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
