The Faculty of Hospitality, Tourism and Wellness (FHPK) is the sixth faculty established at Universiti Malaysia Kelantan (UMK), in line with the university's vision and mission to champion entrepreneurship-based education with a focus on the fields of hospitality, tourism, and wellness. FHPK initially began as a department under the Faculty of Entrepreneurship and Business (FKP) and eventually grew into a full-fledged faculty, officially established on 1st June 2016 and began full operations on 1st August 2016. The development of FHPK was driven by the aspiration of Associate Professor Dr. Ghazali Ahmad, the founder and first dean of FHPK. He was the visionary behind the idea to establish a new faculty, which at the time was still a department within FKP. After the formation of FHPK, Associate Professor Dr. Ghazali Ahmad, with the support of faculty management and staff, worked tirelessly to strengthen the foundation of the faculty through strategic planning and implementation. The aspirations of FHPK were later carried forward by its second dean, Professor Dr. Khairil Wahidin Awang, who was entrusted with the mandate to lead and continue the faculty's development agenda while also navigating the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Leadership of FHPK was then taken over by Associate Professor Dr. Roslizawati Che Aziz, who bore the responsibility of continuing the legacy of leadership to ensure that FHPK moves forward in alignment with the university's aspirations while meeting the expectations of stakeholders. In January 2024, the leadership of FHPK continued under Associate Professor Dr. Mohd Fadil Mohd Yusof, who was appointed to help steer the faculty towards excellence at the international level.
