History and organizational overview of the Management Study Program, Faculty of Economics, Trunojoyo University, Madura
Trunojoyo Madura University was inaugurated as a state university in Indonesia in 2001. Before being inaugurated as a state university, Trunojoyo Madura University was a private university with the name Bangkalan University (UNIBANG). UNIBANG itself was founded in 1986. One of the main objectives of establishing UNIBANG was to advance the level of public education in Madura and form a group of people who are capable and responsible, have noble character and in general to prepare the young generation who have integrity so that they are useful for the homeland and the nation. .
At the beginning of its establishment as a state university, Trunojoyo University had 3 faculties, namely the Faculty of Economics, the Faculty of Agriculture and the Faculty of Law.

In accordance with the initial aim of establishing the university, namely to advance the educational level of the Madurese community, the majority of lecturers and students are Madurese.
In 2009, the scope of governance throughout the University was changed by not becoming a Department, but becoming a Study Program. By not eliminating the existing knowledge, the Faculty of Economics, which previously had 3 departments, namely the Accounting Department, Management Department and Development Economics Department, has 3 Study Programs, namely the Management Study Program, Accounting Study Program and Development Economics Study Program. The change in status from Department to Study Program does not eliminate the meaning of the tasks carried out, namely improving the quality of human resources, improving the quality of graduates and developing institutions.
