2006 Graduate Catalog and 2005 Annual R & D Report Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology (SIIT) On January 29, 1992, with initial funding provided by Keidanren and the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), the Thammasat University Council approved the establishment of bachelor's degree programs in civil, electrical, and industrial engineering, which became the autonomous International Institute of Technology (IIT), Thammasat University, on September 16, 1994, by Thammasat University Council’s special regulation. His Majesty the King graciously granted the name "Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology (SIIT)" to the Institute on June 28, 1996. Located at the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University and the Bangkadi Industrial Park, SIIT is privately funded with initial funding provided by FTI and Keidanren. It is envisioned to become a leading international institute of technology for both teaching/learning and research. 1. Academic Programs Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology (SIIT) offers undergraduate and graduate programs (master and doctoral levels) leading to the Bachelor of Engineering (BEng), Bachelor of Science (BSc), Master of Science (MSc), and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in the following areas: Chemical Engineering (ChE), Civil Engineering (CE), Communications (TC), Industrial Engineering (IE), Mechanical Engineering (ME), Environmental Technology (EV), Computer Science (CS), Information Technology (IT), Engineering Management (EM), and Management Technology (MT). In the academic year 2005, the total number of SIIT undergraduate students was 1,955. First year students are admitted through the national university entrance examination, the entrance examination conducted by SIIT, or through evaluations of standardized test scores, such as SAT and GCSE. The Institute also admits transfer students from other universities. Students wishing to transfer to SIIT are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. SIIT started graduate programs in engineering and technology leading to master’s and doctoral degrees in 1995 and 1997, respectively. In the academic year 2005, there were 24 master’s degree students and 46 doctoral degree students. Interested individuals should consult the Graduate Catalog and contact the faculty members whose research interests match theirs. 2. Faculty Members All SIIT full-time faculty members hold doctoral degrees from leading universities around the world. It is a policy of the Institute that faculty members be active in research. Results of their research and development are published in national and international journals, as well as regional and international conference proceedings, and are briefly presented in this report. They are therefore well qualified to provide up-to-date academic instruction to the students. 3. Academic Facilities To achieve high quality academic services and research, the Institute maintains a conscientious effort to develop facilities of the Library and Information Services Center in addition to advanced laboratories. The SIIT library at Rangsit has a total floor area of 2,518 square meters with a 500-seat capacity. More than 22,500 volumes of publications are available. An SIIT branch library at Bangkadi has a total floor area of 1,200 square meters with a 180-seat capacity. The branch library has more than 6,500 volumes of publications. The library adopted the VTLS integrated library system in July 1995 to facilitate the usage of the Library collection. Computer facilities are also provided for accessing world-wide information resources, electronic journals and online databases. SIIT at Rangsit has two five-storey buildings, the SIIT main building and the advanced laboratory building, and a small building housing the Environmental Technology Laboratory. There are two new buildings at Bangkadi, in addition to an existing building which is named after Thanpuying Niramol Suriyasat. One is a five-storey building housing the administration offices, and the School of Information and Computer Technology. It was completed in May 2002. The other, completed in October 2004, is a six-storey building. It accommodates the School of Communications, Instrumentations and Control, School of Management Technology, the Library, the computer center, engineering laboratories, and classrooms. The Institute is deeply grateful to Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn for graciously granting the use of the name “Sirindhralai” for the new six-storey building. Her Royal Highness graciously presided over the inauguration of the Sirindhralai Building on June 28, 2006. Since 1996, the Institute has graduated 11 batches of students and the total number of SIIT graduates (as of June 2006) is 2,632: 2,546 Bachelor's Degree, 63 Master's Degree and 23 Doctoral Degree graduates. Most of the graduates are working in industry, while many have chosen to further their studies in leading universities in Australia, Europe, Japan, and the USA. 1
