Supporting Student Services
Student Counselling and Job Placement
The Counselling Office has experienced personnel
who offer confidential consultation on academic planning,
course selection, personal and social adjustment problems,
and assistance to students in crisis. Each new student is also
assigned a faculty advisor with whom academic and personal
problems may be discussed.
The Career Center, a part of the Counselling Office,
gives assistance and advice on job placement, self-preparation
for job applications as well as information on availability in
the job market. Students may also consult the Center about
pursuing further education locally or abroad.
Financial Aid and Emergency Fund
Students who need financial aid may apply for the
University’s Emergency Fund at the Counseling Office.
Student Loans
Bangkok University has secured an allocated
governmental fund for student loans for those in need of
financial aid. The loans, however, are reserved for those who
meet the conditions and terms of the student loans set by
the Thai government.
Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC)
In line with the Thai government’s policy of compulsory
five-year military training for Thai male citizens, the University
encourages male students who have not undergone any military
training before entering the University to enroll in the ROTC
course. Such students will, however, have to be certified as
physically fit for the training.
