Philosophy:
Thailand’s economic and social development is directed towards adopting knowledge and technology as the basis for economic restructuring. The aim of this policy is to achieve a value-based economy, primarily through adoption of information and communication technology as an impetus to create a digital economy and society.

As computer and digital technology has become a basic necessity for the country’s economic and social development, higher education institutions are required to prepare graduates with advanced expertise in information technology, the ability to conduct research, and the potential to build on existing knowledge and develop more efficient products and innovations.  Aware of the aforementioned needs, the School of Information Technology now offers a Master of Science Programme in Information Technology.  The primary goal of this programme is to create information technology specialists who possess researching ability and advanced skills in analysing and solving technical problems related to information and digital technology.

The Master of Science Programme in Information Technology was designed to offer intense teaching/learning activities, theoretical and practical emphases, and training programmes focusing on developing problem-solving skills.  The teaching/learning activities integrate lectures with multimedia materials, whilst training is provided in modern laboratory facilities, and, moreover, through problem-based learning and project collaboration with the industrial sector.

This programme’s primary objective is to create information technology graduates with the capability of coping with the rapidly changing information technology business and industry in Thailand, in response to the government’s digital economy and society plan and information technology collaboration between Thailand, AEC countries and the international community.
