STT Telkom has been under the Telkom Education Foundation (YPT) since its establishment.[10]

The purpose of the rapid establishment of STT Telkom is to meet the needs of experts in the telecommunications industry. Telkom is very interested in the institution, so it provides full scholarships to students for the 1991 and 1992 classes. The existence of climate change in the telecommunications industry and with the start of Telkom Indonesia entered the era of going public, the scholarship program and bulk bond subsequently terminated and STT Telkom became an independent college.[11]
