Virtual Linguistic Landscape (VLL) studies have been conducted globally in various contexts, yet research on VLL in Indonesia remains limited. To respond to this, the current study examines the VLL of the Faculty of Cultural Studies’ website at University as Brawijaya, Malang, Indonesia, with a focus on how it aligns with the faculty's bilingual language policy. By analysing the use of Indonesian and English, this research explores the implementation of institutional language policies in digital spaces and the users’ perceptions of it. Data collection involved manual web searches and interviews with ten participants, comprising five faculty staff and five students. The findings reveal that the website predominantly uses Indonesian and English, reflecting the university’s bilingual policy, although users favour Indonesian for ease of access. The study highlights the importance of improving the quality of website content and suggests further research across diverse faculties to deepen understanding of VLL practices.
