TAIST-Science Tokyo

Additionally, one academic supervisor from each organization — Science Tokyo, NSTDA, and the student's home university — is assigned to oversee each student's thesis research. Students who complete the program receive their master's degree from their home university and a certificate from TAIST-Science Tokyo. Moreover, National Research Council of Thailand (NRCT) grants scholarships to TAIST students.

TAIST-Science Tokyo Student Exchange Program was launched in 2015. An outbound program offers Science Tokyo students the opportunity to take courses alongside TAIST students in Thailand and to conduct research internships in the laboratories of NSTDA. The inbound program provides opportunities for TAIST students to conduct master's thesis research at the laboratory of their Science Tokyo supervisor.

Since its establishment, approximately 50 students each year have graduated from TAIST. The program's alumni have gained employment not only with Japanese and Thai companies but also with universities and research institutes in Thailand. Some have advanced to doctoral programs at universities in Japan, including Science Tokyo, and in the West. These alumni are strengthening ties between academia and industry, and between Japan, Thailand, and neighboring Asian nations.

On the basis of its solid track record of developing talented individuals in Thailand, TAIST-Science Tokyo will continue to encourage student exchange between Thailand and Japan and to develop highly skilled researchers, engineers, and R&D personnel. These graduates, like their predecessors, will play active roles in the Asian region and the world. Raise your expectations high for TAIST!
