Degrees in Thailand

With nearly 70 million citizens, Thailand is the 20th most populated country in the world. It’s extensive coastline runs along the Andaman Sea to the west and south, and it is bordered by Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, and Malaysia sitting in the center of the Indochina Peninsula. Thailand also controls over 100 tropical islands near its coastlines, which are well worth exploring during time off your studies.

As the country’s capital and largest city, Bangkok is the most popular destination where international students earn a degree abroad in Thailand. With a population nearing 15 million people, Bangkok is by far the country’s largest urban area, and is a major hub of culture, education, and economic activity. Many of Thailand’s most highly touted universities, including Kasetsart University and Chulalongkorn University, are located in the nation’s capital.

Other locations where you might look into pursuing a degree abroad in Thailand include Nakhon Pathom (home to Mahidol University), Pathum Thani (home to Rangsit University), and Samut Prakarn (home to Huachiew Chalermprakiet University). These provinces are more remote and less densely populated than Bangkok, so can offer you a great alternative if you are looking for a more deeply immersive experience away from the big city.
