Understanding NIM
NIM is ITB student identifier that consists of a fixed eight-character number. The eight characters are split into three parts.
- The first three character represents faculty for freshman or major for non-freshman.
- The following two character represents their start year or commonly referred as batch year in the college
- The final three character represents their student number in ascending order within their class (faculty/major and batch year).
Examples
- NIM 13518020 means student from major code of 135 (Computer Science), batch year of 2018, and student number of 20.
- NIM 16221223 means student from faculty code of 162 (Pharmacy), batch year of 2021, and student number of 223.
Every student will obtain one NIM during their freshman and another one upon starting as a sophomore. The former is commonly referred as faculty NIM and the latter as major NIM.
Basic Usage for Name and NIM
The NIM Finder works typically as you would expect in case-insensitive fashion. You could type anything in the query. Number would be regarded as batch year or major code if makes sense else as student's NIM. Meanwhile, string would be considered as major name or major code if possible then student's name otherwise.
Enter NIM or any part of the NIM and you'll get students with the corresponding part of NIM.
Examples
- Searching 13518021 will display student with NIM that includes (in this case, equals) 13518021.
- Searching 16219 will display students with NIM that includes 16219. Be it ***16219 (student from any major that started in 2016 and have 219 as their student number) or 16219*** (all 2019 students from Pharmacy - faculty code 162).
Similarly, enter name and you'll get students whose name contains the query as part of the student's full name.
Alternatively, you might want to search for students whose any part of the name starts with the given query instead of just containing the query. In that case, you'll need to put an extra dot (.) on the query.
Do note, however, that searching this way (start-name searching) cannot be combined with the basic name searching. In the case that it occurs, the system will prioritize start-name searching.
Examples
- Searching fani will display every student with name that includes the word fani, such as Stefanie and Fani Angela.
- Searching .fani will display every student with any part of the name that starts with the word fani, such as Fani Angela and Maria Fani, not Stefanie.
- Searching fani angel will display every student whose name consists of the substring fani AND angel in any part of their name, such as Fani Angela and Stefanie Cangela, not Stefanie Maria and Angel Fanna.
- Searching fani.angel will display every student whose name that has the word fani AND angel as the starting word, such as Fani Angela and not Stefanie Cangela.
Advanced Usage for Major and Batch Year
NIM Finder also supports searching by major, faculty, and batch year.
Searching by majors or faculties can be done with either the major/faculty names or the major/faculty codes. The tables below display the keywords required to search by faculties and majors, respectively. Note that all keywords are case-insensitive.

Searching by years follows the same fashion as majors/faculties. Current NIM Finder supports batch year from 2016 to 2022. The table below display the keywords recognized to filter by batch year.
| Year | Keywords |
|---|---|
| 2016 | 2016, 16 |
| 2017 | 2017, 17 |
| 2018 | 2018, 18 |
| 2019 | 2019, 19 |
| 2020 | 2020, 20 |
| 2021 | 2021, 21 |
| 2022 | 2022, 22 |
Examples
- Searching 19 will display all students starting in ITB at 2019.
- Searching 16 2021 will display all students starting in ITB at 2016 and 2021.
Compound Searching
The main idea behind NIM Finder is to enable rich search without any SQL query. Rich search allows searching with all the combination of name, NIM, major, faculty, and batch year in any order of typing. You could even omit space when adjacents keywords have different representation (alphabet next to number or vice-versa).
The NIM Finder also provides sorting ability on name and NIM result simply just by clicking on the table header. Upward arrow means ascending, and vice-versa. Name sorting are based alphabetically. For NIM sorting, those with major (second-year above students) get prioritized first based on the major NIM, then those in the freshman year. However, the default sort still relies on faculty NIM in ascending order.
Examples
- Searching if18.vin will display students from Informatics 2018 with any of their names starting with vin.
- Searching 19 mic aktu kimia will display students from Actuary 2019 and Chemistry 2019 with their names including the word mic.
- Searching sbm 20 will display all students from SBM 2020 in order of their faculty NIM.
- Searching .vin .ev or .vin.ev or .ev.vin will display all students with any of their names starting with vin and ev.
On top of the filter and sort features, you could also copy the student's information to clipboard by simply clicking on it. Downloading the whole query result to Microsoft Excel is also another feature that you might want to try.
