1 20 TRADICIJA Fakultet za menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu 55 godina posvećeni obrazovanju za turizam Fakultet za menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu od svojih je početaka godine i formalnog osamostaljenja godine značajna znanstveno-nastavna ustanova u okviru Sveučilišta u Rijeci, specifična po području svog znanstveno-istraživačkog i nastavnog djelovanja ekonomske znanosti s aplikacijom na turizam, ugostiteljstvo i održivi razvoj. S obzirom na specifičnosti navedenog područja uvažavana je potreba za interdisciplinarnim pristupom te nudi studentima sveobuhvatna znanja iz ekonomije, ali i bazična znanja iz drugih područja koja su usko vezana uz turizam, ugostiteljstvo i održivi razvoj. fmtu.indd 20 Obrazovanje po mjeri gospodarstva Studijski programi uvijek su rađeni na osnovi analiza, ocjena stanja i prioritetnih smjernica hrvatskog gospodarstva i uvažavajući programe srodnih fakulteta iz Europe, što Fakultetu osigurava poziciju lidera u ovom području obrazovanja. Svjesni potrebe za stalnim unapređivanjem znanja, Fakultet je uz preddiplomski i diplomski studijski program razvio i izvodi dva poslijediplomska specijalistička studija (Menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu i Zdravstveni turizam). Krunu vertikale obrazovanja predstavljaju poslijediplomski sveučilišni doktorski studiji (Poslovna ekonomija u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu i Menadžment održivog razvoja). Doktorski studij kao studij treće razine obrazovanja temelji se na znanstveno-istraživačkom radu studenata tijekom kojeg se stječu kompetentna znanja potrebna nositeljima u sustavu znanosti, visokom obrazovanju, ali i gospodarstvu te javnoj i lokalnoj samoupravi, čime se u cijelosti provodi Bolonjska deklaracija s krajnjim ciljem uspostave društva utemeljenog na znanju.

2 21 TRADITION Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management Dedicated to Tourism Education for 55 Years Ever since its beginning in 1960 and its formal independence that took place in 1974 Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management has been an important scientific and educational institution within the framework of the University of Rijeka that is specific due to its area of scientific, research and educational activities - economic science that is applied to tourism, hospitality and sustainable development. Due to specificities of the aforementioned area, the need for interdisciplinary approach was adopted, one that offers students comprehensive knowledge of economy and also other basic knowledge from other areas closely connected to tourism, hospitality and sustainable development. Education Tailor-Made for the Economy Study programs are always created on the basis of analyses, status evaluations and Croatian economy priority guidelines and by taking into account programs of related universities in Europe, which ensures a leading position for the Faculty in this area of education. Alongside the undergraduate and graduate study programs, the Faculty, be- ing aware of the need for a constant knowledge upgrade has developed and implemented two postgraduate specialist studies ( Management in Tourism and Hospitality and Health Tourism ). Postgraduate university doctoral studies ( Business Administration in Tourism and Hospitality and Management of Sustainable Development ) are the very top of the education vertical. Doctoral study as a third level of education is based on students scientific and research work during which competent knowledge is acquired and is absolutely necessary for those who represent the pillars of science, higher education but also of economy and public and local self-government. This ensures a complete implementation of the Bologna Declaration with the final goal of building a knowledge-based society. Future students are offered a possibility of completing the education vertical at the highest level, which translates into the education of young researchers and scientists that can develop their careers, after finishing their doctoral studies, in the field of science or by implementing scientific knowledge in practice.

3 22 TRADICIJA Dekani govore vertikale u obrazovanju na najvišoj razini, a to znači obrazovanje mladih istraživača i znanstvenika koji svoju karijeru po završetku doktorskog studija mogu razviti u području znanosti ili implementirajući znanstvene spoznaje u praksi. Svjesni dinamičnosti okruženja, Fakultet radi na formiranju i izvođenju programa cjeloživotnog učenja smatrajući svojom odgovornošću i zadatkom pridonijeti na taj način daljnjem napretku turizma u Hrvatskoj, a slijedeći pri tome načela održivog razvoja kao temeljne razvojne koncepcije. Razvoj Fakulteta rezultat je djelovanja generacija nastavnika koji su ugradili dio sebe u njegov razvojni proces. Najveći, ipak, doprinos dali su njegovi čelnici, dekani, koji su vodili politiku razvoja Fakulteta tijekom desetljeća. Dekani Fakulteta od godine do danas: prof. dr. sc. Dušan Jagodić prof. dr. sc. Ivan Antunac prof. dr. sc. Žarko Mrkušić prof. dr. sc. Neda Andrić, professor emeritus prof. dr. sc. Franjo Radišić, professor emeritus prof. dr. sc. Milena Peršić prof. dr. sc. Ivanka Avelini Holjevac, professor emeritus prof. dr. sc. Zoran Ivanović prof. dr. sc. Branka Berc Radišić prof. dr. sc. Jože Perić prof. dr. sc. Dora Smolčić Jurdana Prof. dr. sc. Franjo Radišić, professor emeritus ( ) Moj je mandat obilježen složenim vremenima stvaranja nove hrvatske države, Domovinskim ratom i veoma složenim političkim, društvenim i gospodarskim okolnostima. Prepoznat je interes gospodarstva i pokrenut je poslijediplomski znanstveni magistarski studij Menadžment u suvremenom hotelijerstvu. Odmah po imenovanju na funkciji dekana tada Hotelijerskog fakulteta, prepoznaje se potreba kadrovskog jačanja nastavnog kadra, pri čemu najveći dio na Fakultet prelazi iz turističko-ugostiteljskog gospodarstva. Fakultet se u turbulentnim vremenima morao još snažnije etablirati u društvu, visokom obrazovanju, kao i u znanstvenim krugovima. U to vrijeme stvoreni su čvrsti oslonci za nove razvojne perspektive. Prof. dr. sc. Milena Peršić ( ) U mojem mandatu snažno uporište čini razvoj znanstveno-istraživačkog rada i međunarodne suradnje. Pokreće se znanstveni časopis Tourism&Hospitality Management, koji kontinuirano izlazi već 20 godina i indeksira se u velikom broju značajnih znanstvenih baza. U suradnji s Ekonomskim sveučilištem u Beču (Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien) začeta je Međunarodna ljetna škola Alpe-Adria, uz sudjelovanje nastavnika i studenata većine zemalja regije Alpe-Adria. Koristeći raspoložive međunarodne fondove, organizirana su brojna studijska putovanja za nastavnike i studente, stvoreni su uvjeti za studijske boravke naših nastavnika i suradnika kao i stjecanje stranih diploma na poznatim i priznatim sveučilištima. Sve raspoložive mogućnosti iskorištene su za zapošljavanje mladih, perspektivnih znanstvenika. Prof. dr. sc. Ivanka Avelini Holjevac, professor emeritus ( ) Slijedeći zahtjeve gospodarstva i prepoznajući značenje kontinentalnog turizma, godine upisali smo prvu generaciju studenata u Zaboku, a taj je odjel danas prerastao u suvremeni Studijski centar Zabok. Isto tako, Fakultetu koji je do tada djelovao pod nazivom Hotelijerski fakultet proširuje se područje djelovanja i s tim u skladu mijenja naziv u Fakultet za turistički i hotelski menadžment. Osnovan je novi poslijediplomski znanstveni magistarski studij Upravljanje kvalitetom u turizmu i hotelijerstvu, prvi te vrste u Hrvatskoj, interdisciplinarnog karaktera s predavačima s više sveučilišta. Proširena je i uređena čitaonica Fakulteta. Po uzoru na inozemna sveučilišta uvodimo toge na promociji naših studenata.

4 23 TRADITION Being aware of the dynamic environment, the Faculty is working on forming and implementing lifelong learning programs, considering its responsibility and task to contribute to the further development of tourism in the Republic of Croatia, and by following the principles of sustainable development as the basic development concept. Faculty development is the result of the work of generations of teachers who put immense efforts into its development process. The biggest contribution to its development is still its front-runners, the deans who have, for decades, led the development policy of the Faculty. Faculty Deans from 1974 onwards: Dušan Jagodić, Ph.D Ivan Antunac, Ph.D Žarko Mrkušić, Ph.D Neda Andrić Professor Emeritus, Ph.D Franjo Radišić Professor Emeritus, Ph.D Milena Peršić, Ph.D Ivanka Avelini Holjevac Professor Emeritus, Ph.D Zoran Ivanović, Ph.D Branka Berc Radišić, Ph.D Jože Perić, Ph.D Dora Smolčić Jurdana, Ph.D. Deans in Their Own Words Franjo Radišić Professor Emeritus, Ph.D. ( ) My term was characterized by a complex period of creating new Croatian state, the Homeland War and by extremely complex political, social and economic circumstances. Business interest was recognized and a postgraduate scientific master s study Management in a Contemporary Hotel Business was started. Immediately after becoming the dean of the then Faculty of Hotel Management, a need for strengthening teaching staff was recognized and most of them joined the Faculty from tourism and hospitality industry. The Faculty had to position itself more strongly during those turbulent times in the society and higher education, as well as in scientific circles. Solid foundation was created during that time for new development perspectives. Milena Peršić, Ph.D. ( ) During my term, the development of scientific and research work and international cooperation was a solid stronghold. Scientific magazine Tourism & Hospitality Management was started and it has been published continuously for the past 20 years and it appears among citation indexes in many relevant scientific databases. In cooperation with the Faculty of Economics in Vienna (Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien), the international summer school Alps-Adriatic was initiated, with the participation of teachers and students from the most countries in the Alps-Adriatic region. By using available international funds, many study visits for teachers and students were organized, and conditions were created for study visits of our teachers and associates as well as acquiring of foreign diplomas at renowned and recognized universities. All available opportunities were used for employing young, perspective scientists. Ivanka Avelini Holjevac Professor Emeritus, Ph.D. ( ) Following the demands of the economy and recognizing the importance of continental tourism, in 2000 we enrolled the first generation of students in Zabok, which is nowadays the modern Zabok Study Center. Also, the Faculty, until then known as Faculty of Hotel Management, broadened its area of interest and changed its name accordingly into the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management. A new postgraduate scientific master s study Quality Management in Tourism and Hotel Business was founded, first of this kind in Croatia, and it had an interdisciplinary dimension with teachers from several universities. The Faculty library was expanded and organized. We introduced togas for the promotion ceremony of our students, following the example of international universities.

5 24 TRADICIJA Prof. dr. sc. Zoran Ivanović ( ) U vrijeme moga mandatnog razdoblja godine Fakultet smo, kao prvi u Hrvatskoj, uveli u europski svijet visokoga obrazovanja zasnovanog na načelima Bolonjske deklaracije. Uspostavljen je sustav lako prepoznatljivoga i usporedivoga akademskoga stupnja, uveden je bodovni sustav ECTS, izrađen lako prepoznatljiv i harmonizirani obrazovni program za stjecanje kvalifikacije, utemeljen na kompetencijama. Također, uveden je dodatak diplomi, primijenjen First Class Honours Degree sustav za objektivno mjerenje ishoda učenja te sustav pohvale studenata Summa Cum Laude, uveden softver e-student, zatim su u diplomi ispred postojećih prava pridodane pohvale i časti, standardizirana je i modificirana diploma na format A4. Našu metodologiju i implementaciju bolonjskih načela i softverskih rješenja prihvatila su mnoga sveučilišta, a Fakultet je bio domaćin izradi Hrvatskoga kvalifikacijskoga okvira visoke naobrazbe. Zbog međunarodne prepoznatljivosti naziva hospitality, Fakultet za turistički i hotelski menadžment preimenovan je u Fakultet za menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu, a zaokruženom grbu Fakulteta pridodali smo Fontisscientia 1960 jer od te godine djeluje kao izvor znanja u području turizma i ugostiteljstva. Prof. dr. sc. Jože Perić ( ) Poznato je da svaki mandat dekanstva ima svoje posebnosti. Meni se čini, iako je vremenski odmak premalen, da je u razdoblju dok sam bio dekan ostvaren zavidan preobražaj Fakulteta. Ključan je visoki europski standard odnosa broja nastavnika i studenata i, uzročno-posljedično, veliki val zapošljavanja mladih s kojima je dugoročno osigurana snaga Fakulteta. Posebno važno je brzo otvaranje Fakulteta i njegovih kadrova prema okruženju, lokalnoj samoupravi i gospodarstvu kroz projekte, studije i druge oblike povezivanja. U taj kontekst rado stavljam inoviranje programa i naročito uvođenje mentorirane stručne prakse kroz cijeli osmi semestar preddiplomskog studija. Programska, znanstveno-istraživačka, izdavačka, kadrovska i studentska internacionalizacija Fakulteta u znatnoj je mjeri unaprijedila njegovu prepoznatljivost u zemlji i inozemstvu. U svojem mandatu moram istaknuti rad tima suradnika i razumijevanje svih zaposlenika za mjere koje su težile izvrsnosti, kvaliteti i financijskoj održivosti. Prof. dr. sc. Dora Smolčić Jurdana Fakultet potiče i osigurava unutarnju i vanjsku mobilnost studenata i nastavnika, racionalno korištenje ljudskih i materijalnih resursa, razvoj multidisciplinarnih istraživanja, inoviranje nastavnih planova i programa, nadzor i stalni rast kvalitete, rast kompetitivnosti nastavnog, znanstvenog i stručnog rada te intenziviranje suradnje s gospodarstvom i ukupnim okruženjem. Obrazovanje, znanstveno-istraživački rad, znanstveno i stručno usavršavanje, međunarodna suradnja, partnerstvo s ključnim strukovnim udruženjima i gospodarskim subjektima, partnerstvo s lokalnom zajednicom, društveni angažman sve su to elementi koji se integriraju u sve razvojne procese na Fakultetu. Cijeneći tradiciju institucije i imajući na umu izazove XXI. stoljeća usvojena je nova Strategije razvoja Fakulteta za menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu Temelji budućeg rada usmjereni su na ostvarenje vizije i misije Fakulteta do godine. Izvod iz Strategije: VIZIJA Fakultet za menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu lider je visokoga obrazovanja, znanstvenog i stručnog istraživanja u području turizma, ugostiteljstva i održivoga razvoja u Hrvatskoj i široj regiji. MISIJA Fakultet za menadžment u turizmu i ugostiteljstvu Sveučilišta u Rijeci kao znanstveno- istraživačka i obrazovna institucija kreator je znanja o turizmu, ugostiteljstvu i održivom razvoju. Studentima se osigurava kvalitetno obrazovanje za preuzimanje liderskih pozicija u uvjetima snažne globalne konkurencije. Zaposlenici pri tome imaju ključnu ulogu. U poticajnom radnom okruženju inicira se inovativnost, znanstveno-istraživačka i edukativna izvrsnost, lojalnost i predanost. Kreativnim partnerstvima s gospodarstvom, javnim sektorom i civilnim društvom odgovara se na gospodarske i društvene izazove znanstveno utemeljenim rješenjima. Potiče se izvrsnost i sve se aktivnosti provode poštujući načela etike i društvene odgovornosti. fmtu.indd 24 04/08/15 17:36

6 25 TRADITION Zoran Ivanović, Ph.D. ( ) Speaking of my term from 2004 until 2009, I would like to especially highlight my personal engagement in introducing the Faculty to the European world of higher education, based on the principles of the Bologna Declaration, because it was the first one in Croatia to: establish a system of an easily recognizable and comparable academic level; introduce a scoring system-ects; create an easily recognizable and harmonized educational system for acquiring qualifications, based on competences; introduce an Addendum to Diploma; apply the First Class Honors Degree System for objective measurement of learning outcomes, and the laud system Summa Cum Laude that is supported by the e-student software; add laud and honors to diploma next to the existing rights; standardize and modify diploma to an A4 format. Our methodology and implementation of the Bologna principles and software solutions have been adopted by many universities. The Faculty was a host for the development of the Croatian Qualifications Framework of Higher Education. For the purpose of international recognizability of the notion of hospitality, Faculty of Tourism and Hotel Management changed its name to Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management, and it added Fontisscientia 1960 to its rounded Faculty coat of arms because that is the year when it became a source of knowledge in the field of tourism and hospitality. Jože Perić, Ph.D. ( ) It is known that all deans terms are specific and particular in their own way. It seems to me, despite the shortness of time distance, that the period during which I was the dean saw an enviable transformation of the Faculty. The key was high European standard of the teacher-student number ratio and, consequently, a big employment wave of young people who, in the long term, ensured the strength of the Faculty. The Faculty and its staff quickly opened up to the environment, local self-government and the economy - which was particularly important - and it was soon translated into practice through projects, studies and other forms of cooperation. In this context, I would like to mention program innovation and especially the introduction of mentored professional training, taking place throughout the eighth semester of the undergraduate study. Program, scientific, research, publishing, teaching staff and student internationalization of the Faculty has significantly improved the Faculty s recognizability, both in Croatia and abroad. I have to highlight that, throughout my term, an aspiring team of associates and all the employees understood what measures had to be taken in order to achieve excellence, quality and financial sustainability. Dora Smolčić Jurdana, Ph.D. The Faculty encourages and ensures internal and external student and teaching staff mobility, rational usage of human and material resources, development of multidisciplinary research, new teaching plans and programs innovation, quality monitoring and continuous growth, growth of competitiveness of educational, scientific and expert work and the intensification of cooperation with the economic operators and the general environment. Education, scientific and research work, scientific and expert specialization, international cooperation, partnership with key professional associations and business operators, partnership with the local community and social engagement - all these factors are integrated into all development processes at the Faculty. By respecting the tradition of the institution and bearing in mind the challenges of the 21st century, a new Development Strategy of Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management was adopted. The focus of our future work remains on achieving the Faculty s vision and mission by Excerpt from the Strategy: VISION The Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management is a leader in higher education, scientific and expert research in the field of tourism, hospitality and sustainable development in Croatia and wider region. MISSION As a scientific, research and educational institution, the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management at the University of Rijeka is a generator of knowledge about tourism, hospitality and sustainable development. Students are guaranteed quality education which will allow them to take over leadership positions in the environment of a strong global competition. Employees play a key role in this. Innovation, scientific research and educational excellence, loyalty and dedication are encouraged in a supportive work environment. Creative partnerships with economic operators, public sector and civil society, as well as using science-based solutions are used as a response to economic and social challenges. Excellence is encouraged and all activities are conducted by respecting principles of ethics and social responsibility. fmtu.indd 25 04/08/15 17:36
