The university was named after the national hero of Sultan Agung (literally, “Great Sultan”) as the third Sultan who ruled Mataram Sultane from 1613 to 164...5. The King, Sultan Agung Adi Prabu Hanyakrakusuma, was born in Kotagede (now becomes part of Jogyakarta) in 1593. During his sultanate, Mataram was a great sultanate, developed rapidly, and eventually became the biggest kingdom in Java Island and Nusantara.
There were several reasons for selecting the name of Sultan Agung as the name of the University.

Third, he was a religious Sultan with noble character and was able to implement religious life through acceptable acculturation across his territory. This was not a surprise that his dedication as a patriot as well as a humanist made him be an Indonesian national hero that this was officially reinforced with presidential decree No. 106/TK/1975 on November 3rd, 1975.
