On April 2 seventy-seven students from Cambodia selected to receive a scholarship under the patronage of HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn were welcomed to Mahasarakham University in a ceremony held in the conference room of the Faculty of Engineering. The Royal project provides full term undergraduate, Master’s and Doctoral scholarships to Cambodian students.The welcome also included a ceremony giving thanks in the offering of flowers and thanks to honour the birthday of HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn as well as praise for the programs HM King Bhumibol has introduced over the decades to support and develop education, improve the well being of the poor and in the preservation of Thai culture within the kingdom.
An innovative aspect of the scholarships is the introduction this year of full medical and dental health treatment. The Cambodian students will be given expert health treatment from MSU Faculty of Medicine and full dental treatment from the Royal Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn’s Faculty of Dentistry, Mahidol University.
Students will undergo a two month preparation learning to speak, read and write Thai language and basic English as well as an introduction into Thai culture before commencing their full time studies in mainstream classes at MSU. ...more pics
