Thailand University : Srinakharinwirot University

Prasarnmit Campus

Thailand University Like other parts of present Bangkok (Krungthep), what is now the main campus of Srinakharinwirot University, was, 220 years ago, part of a swampy, monsoonal floodplain fed by the Chaophraya River.  Since then, many industrial and technological developments have contributed to the growth and development of its
present site. And, it is on this site that a fine bronze statue of its founder, Dr. Saroj Buasri, nourished our first educators in 1949. Conditions were far from modern and the University was still surrounded by much tropical riverine and canal (khlong) vegetation, aquatic animals and a largely, boat-bound but not-dense, ethnically diverse human population.

In 1949, the University became a reality when the Higher Teacher Training School at Prasarnmit was established. There was then an urgent need for degree-level training for the teaching profession.  Prasarnmit was the first of its kind in the country’s history of teacher training.  In 1953, it became the College of Education having authority to grant a Bachelor’s degree in Education. Subsequently, more programs at both the Bachelor and Master levels were developed.  In 1974, the College of Education became a comprehensive university by Royal Decree of His Majesty the King Bhumibol Adulyadej who graciously named the new university Srinakharinwirot (Si-na-ka-rin-wi-rot), which means ‘the glory of the city.’  Today, situated in the center of Bangkok, the University maintains thirteen faculties, seven research institutes, seven centers, the Graduate School and Demonstration Schools.  However, the University’s broad vision of its role in education did not extend to the early acquisition of large building sites in the rapidly developing central Bangkok area.  As a result, some of the newer Faculties were later relocated to a new campus.

Ongkharak Campus

Thailand University1By 1996, the University’s rapid growth had exceeded the original campus’ capacity.  To address the overcrowding, the University expanded its facilities to Ongkharak District, in Nakhon Nayok Province, which is about 70 kilometers from Bangkok.  The first faculty on this new campus was the Faculty of Engineering that admitted its first engineering students in 1996.  Faculties in various fields of Medicine and Technology are currently located at the Ongkharak campus.

 

The Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Medical Center was established at the Ongkharak campus to provide the University’s medical students with modern facilities for research and training and from which medical care is provided for students, staff and the general public.  Throughout its history of rapid growth, and its modernizing and technological developments, Srinakharinwirot University has maintained its strong reputation in the field of education and a commitment to academic excellence.

Thailand University : Mahidol University

Founded in 1943 as the University of Medical Sciences, Mahidol University has its origins in the first medical school in Thailand, established at Siriraj Hospital in 1890 by H.M. King Chulalongkorn. In 1969, having gained renown in the fields of medicine, public health and the sciences, the University was renamed with great honor by H.M. King Bhumibol Adulyadej after his own father, H.R.H. Prince Mahidol of Songkla, who is widely acknowledged to be the 'Father of Modern Medicine and Public Health in Thailand'.

Mahidol University has since developed into one of the most prestigious universities in Thailand, internationally known and recognized for the high caliber research and teaching of its faculty, and its outstanding achievements in teaching, research, international academic collaboration and professional services. This diversified institution now offers top quality programs in numerous social and cultural disciplines, including the most doctoral programs of any institution in Thailand, yet has maintained its traditional excellence in the medicine and the sciences.

Degrees and Admissions
Mahidol University is an acknowledged leader in International Education in Thailand, and was awarded the "Prime Minister's Export Award 2006" for the most recognized service in international education.

In addition to the national degree programs taught in the Thai language, Mahidol University has offered international degree programs, taught totally in English, for many years. Based on the concept of "Global Quality-Thai Touch", these programs aim not only at ensuring that degree programs have international quality, but also that students develop into global citizens. They also provide leadership in key areas of education to students from neighboring countries.

These international degree programs at Bachelor, Master's, Doctoral, and Graduate Diploma programs attract more than international 600 students from than 40 different countries, in addition to some 4,500 Thai students.
