Doctoral of Social and Political Science

The study program Study of Social Sciences was taken from the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences which had been the first to manage the Social and Political Science Strata 1 Program in Universitas Airlangga in 1978. Thus, this Study Program designed by Prof. Soetandyo Wignjosoebroto, MPA, and Prof. A Ramlan Surbakti, MA.,Ph.D was then referred  to as the Social Science Doctoral Program albeit being under the management of the Post-Graduate Program of Universitas Airlangga.

The legal basis for the formation of the Social Science Doctoral Program is Surat Keputusan (SK) Menteri Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan RI Nomor: 593/DIKTI/KEP/1993 dated November 4th 1993. The Social Science Doctoral Study Program Universitas Airlangga has filed for accreditaion to the Badan Akreditasi Nasional – Perguruan Tinggi (BAN-PT), and had been graded A, based on SK BAN PT No: 010/BAN-PT/Ak-VIII/S3/XII/2009, dated December 4th 2009.

Since its conception the Social Science Doctoral Program was conducted at the Post-Graduate building of Universitas Airlangga, located on the B Campus, Jl. Dharmawangsa Dalam, Surabaya. For approximately twenty years, the Social Science Doctoral Program had been managed under the Postgraduate Program of Universitas Airlangga, until 2012 when the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences began to manage it.

The implementation of education, particularly higher education, is strongly influenced by the changes and developments of the strategic environment, which confronts every high-level education in various challenges, in addition to the constraints and problems that must be addressed. This is the basis of thought since the beginning of the establishment of Social Science Doctoral Program at Airlangga University.
