 Tourism has grown by leaps and bounds in the last six decades with tourist arrivals worldwide increasing from 25 million in 1950 to 1184 million in 2015.The industry is highly labour intensive with huge magnitude of human resources needed for this sunrise industry. According to UNWTO Tourism Highlights,2014  tourism contributes to 6% of the world’s exports,1 in 11 jobs,9% of the GDP(Direct, Indirect and induced impact).The growth of the Tourism Sector is greatly attributed to the skilled human resource which is made available by  the Tourism Education Institutes running across various levels(Central Institutes, Central Universities, State Universities). An attempt has been made to provide a thorough status of Tourism Education in India and suggest ways to improve the research aspect in Tourism and idging the gap between the requirement of the Tourism Industry and the outcome of the tourism programs presently running in India.
