Marine Science Study Programme

The Marine Science Study Programme at the Faculty of Marine Sciences and Fisheries, Udayana University was formed through several developments. The initial initiator and founder of the Marine Science Study Program at Udayana University was pioneered by Prof. Dr. dr. I Made Bakta, Sp.PD (KHOM) who also served as Rector of Udayana University for the 2009-2013 period. This idea was finalised with the establishment of the Faculty of Marine and Fisheries of Udayana University which is located at the Bukit Jimbaran Campus of Unud.The idea of establishing a Marine Science Study Programme increasingly received support from various parties, including from Yamaguci University and Chiba University Japan. After the preparation and through several stages of evaluation, the Directorate General of Higher Education (Ditjen Dikti) of the Ministry of National Education finally issued a Permit for the Implementation of the Marine Science Study Program (S1) at Udayana University in Denpasar, with the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Number: 47/E/O/2012 Dated 03 February 2012.
