Semarang State University (UNNES) campuses use water sources to daily needs and housekeeping which enable water to get into the body accidentally and possible to contaminate, which can trigger health and aesthetic problems. The water sources used are drilled and dug wells. This research was conducted in order to know the quality of water source around UNNES, to make sure safety water consumed for academic community. This research purpose is to know the water quality based on physical, chemical and biological parameter. This method research is observational study with survey, field observation, and laboratory analysis on process collecting data. The result shows that the water physical quality meets the quality principal standards determined. The result of the chemical parameter, the high amount of Fe and Mn at some of sample locations is affected by the ground structure conditions. The result of the biological parameter shows that the MPN and fecal coliform in most of the clean water sources exceeds the quality principal standards determined. Based on function, the water sources in UNNES campuses are used for hygienic sanitation, water processing or water treatment have to be done first before use.
