History of the Faculty of Tourism and Tourism Diploma IV Study Program

Initially, the Faculty of Tourism at Udayana University was named the Udayana University Tourism Science Study Program (PSIK). Udayana University PSIK was established based on the Decree of the Chancellor of Udayana University Number 326/PT.17/I.01.12/1985. In its development, PSIK Udayana University underwent a change in status from the Bachelor of Tourism Science Study Program to the Diploma IV Tourism Study Program under the Faculty of Letters, Udayana University in accordance with the Higher Education Decree Number 68/DIKTI/Kep/1988 November 2, 1988. Only after the Education Decree Higher Education Number 67/Kep/1989 dated 22 July 1989 stipulated that the Tourism Diploma IV Study Program is an inter-faculty study program at Udayana University.

In order to answer these challenges and in order to prepare Human Resources who are academically reliable, professional, skilled, and able to compete in the field of tourism, Udayana University opened a Tourism Study Program, both the Regular Program (Morning Class) Diploma IV Tourism with a Decree of the Director General of Higher Education Number 67/Dikti/Kep./1989 and Parallel Program (Evening Class) with the Decree of the Chancellor of Udayana University Number 2442/J14/HK.01.23/1998.
