The economic and social development, specifically, the opening of free trade among ASEAN communities in 2015 has brought about freedom in medical, dental and nursing education and high competition in the education and services in medical areas. There is a possibility for some of the ASEAN countries who have great potential and standards in medical education, e.g. Singapore, Malaysia to offer medical education in Thailand. Such development would pose a threat to educational institutions in Thailand causing brain drain of qualified lecturers and unfair advantages in the selection and recruitment of students with purchasing power who would like to study in international institutions. Therefore, to help people prepare for their career in ASEAN, our international program will provide them with an alternative, and motivate the professors to challenge their full potential without having to move to a new institution, while expanding the students’ perspectives and for them to keep abreast with the education of international standards.
Therefore, the joint doctoral degree program between Chula’s Faculty of Dentistry and Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) is a response to the abovementioned development. Read less
