Abstract

The academic justification and long-term plan for the Doctor of Education Program at the University of Mataram’s Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (hereafter FTTE) are presented in this paper. The increasing demand for creative, multidisciplinary approaches that combine education and tourism to address regional and global issues has led to the development of this edutourism-oriented doctoral degree. The program aims to develop scholars who can conduct research and create edutourism-oriented models that are in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by utilizing the abundant educational, cultural, and ecological potentials of Lombok and the larger Nusa Tenggara region. The program encourages experiential, community-focused, and transformative learning, all of which are based on the ideas of independent learning. Through scholarly research and instructive community services, it also seeks to promote the growth of sustainable tourism. By advancing regional human capital and integrating education with sustainable tourism and community empowerment, this initiative positions FTTE as a leader in research-based innovation. The ‘educational basis of tourism-oriented education’ serves as the theoretical cornerstone and distinctive feature of the Doctoral Program of Education FTTE University of Mataram.
