OUR PROGRAMS

Thai Language for International Students

The International Program in International Airline Business (IAB) focuses on preparing graduates with knowledge and expertise as well as being a qualified proactive practitioner who meets the needs of the domestic and international aviation industry by applying modern science and technology in teaching and learning to enhance skills and work experience. The curriculum focuses on both theoretical and practical lessons containing knowledge about the hospitality, aviation industry and business in various fields. This program provides not only a computer laboratory but also a mock-up simulating the workplace of airline crews to practice operational skills in positions such as in-flight passenger service, ground passenger service, and ticket reservation.
In addition, we have such a good relation with business sectors in the aviation industry both inland and abroad. Thus, it enhances the benefits for students to apply their learning knowledge to real-world locations during their internship to prepare them for professional entry into the labor market.
