Brief History of the Department
The Department of Tourism and Travel Management of Bhattadev University was
established in the year 2001-02. Formerly, the Department belonged to Bajali College and when
Bajali College has been upgraded to Bhattadev University in August, 2019, and then it
automatically entered into this newly established University.
It can't be denied that there is tremendous potential for tourism in the North Eastern
Region of India. Realizing this great emphasis has been laid upon the development of tourism
industry in Assam. It can rightly be expected that tourism will create both direct and indirect
employment in the Coming years in this part of the country. There will be a great demand for
professionally qualified man power to serve this industry. Hence a course in Tourism &
Travel has become very relevant in Assam now. Therefore Bhattadev University envisaged
the introduction of the subject of TTM.
The main objectives of TTM department is to impart basic knowledge & skills of
Tourism to students which in turn will help them to get job opportunities or it will atleast
offer them opportunities of self employment. The department also intends to create
awareness about Tourism & Travel among the masses & to work for promotion of Tourism
by holding Tourism awareness camp, special lecture, seminars etc. Though TTM was
introduced with the support of UGC, yet TTM Department. of Bhattadev University will
make consistent effort to become self sufficient and transform itself into a full fledged
department in near future.
Presently, the subject of TTM is under the core Department of History. This new subject
seems to have succeeded to attract students since its introduction in 2001. There has been a
gradual rise in enrolment in TTM and this year the enrolment figure has touched thirty.
(Maximum 110. of students shouldn't exceed 30 as per UGC guideline).
Future Plan
We are planning to introduce short term self financing certificate/diploma courses on
Tourism like foundation course on Tourism, Tourist guide, a course on ticketing, office
management etc. For smooth conduct and success of this programme we will try establish
academic linkage with national tourism educational institutions like. Indian Institute of Tourism
and Travel Management, (II TTM) Gwalior, Institute of Hotel Management, Guwahati and with
private Travel Agencies.
