Established March 27, 1998 as Thonburi College of Technology, the institution earned full university status in 2007 and now enrolls approximately 6,306 students across four faculties and a graduate school.\n\nThe main campus sits on over 100 acres in Nong Khaem District, with a dedicated 50-acre sports excellence center on the same soi. Three satellite campuses operate in Lampang, Songkhla, and Samut Prakan, but the Bangkok hub is where the majority of programs run. The university traces its roots to Teacher's Village, a vocational school founded in 1969 by Supachai Yamchuti, and the institutional motto still reflects that heritage: create intellectual capital, develop ethics, create society.\n\nFour faculties structure the undergraduate side. Science and Technology covers information technology and digital media. Accounting runs as a standalone faculty. Engineering offers electrical, mechanical, and industrial specializations. Business Administration splits into six tracks including logistics, tourism, and international business. The Graduate School sits above the bachelor's programs with MBA, M.Ed., and M.Acc. degrees, plus a doctoral program in Technology and Innovation Management for students pushing into research.\n\nShuttle services run for students and staff. The campus is not on a BTS or MRT line, so if you are car-free, factor in the shuttle schedule or a motorbike taxi from the nearest main road.\n\nCurrent leadership: Dr. Banchah Keitmunee serves as rector, with Police General Wachirpol Praserraichit chairing the university council. Programs run in Thai, and the student body skews local rather than international.","our_take":"If you are researching Thai private universities west of the Chao Phraya, this is the Nong Khaem anchor. The campus sprawls across more than 100 acres with a separate 50-acre sports complex, and the shuttle system matters if you are commuting from Petchkasem Road. Start with the Graduate School if you want MBA or M.Ed. tracks tailored to working professionals.","custom_description":null,"hook":"A private university in west Bangkok that grew from a 1969 vocational school into a 100-acre campus offering bachelor's through doctoral programs in technology, business, and education, with over 6,300 students enrolled as of 2022.","meta_title":null,"meta_description":null,"og_title":null,"og_description":null,"og_image":null,"twitter_card":null,"canonical_url":null,"is_featured":null,"is_verified":null,"amenities":null,"property_specs":null,"features":null,"attributes":null,"faq_items":null,"ai_generated_image":null,"street_view_image":null,"owner_uploaded_image":null,"has_real_photo":null,"image_source":null,"image_generated_at":null,"menu_link":null,"line_id":null,"google_maps_url":null,"subscription_tier":null,"description_generated_at":"2026-08-25T17:01:13.307Z","content_status":"pending","focus_keyword":null,"wifi_available":null,"created_at":"2026-07-10T17:02:24.654Z","owner_verified_at":null}
