Inevitably, UIN Sunan Kalijaga as one of big campus in terms of number of population of academicians and the usage of internet in its area, has not joined in a group of institutions that implemented Eduroam. Through this research we aim to give brainstorming to academicians of UIN Sunan Kalijaga of the existence of Eduroam, then we will conclude the feasibility of implementing Eduroam on UIN Sunan Kalijaga. As guidances for this reseach are two hypotheses that we built. Our research method is conducting survey and interview to two domestic institutions which implemented Eduroam. It is followed by distributing online questionnare to do the brainstorming and collecting data.
