Ramkhamhaeng University, Kanchanaburi Regional Campus at a glance
Ramkhamhaeng University -- Thailand's largest open university -- runs a regional campus (sakha witthayabborikan chaloem phrakiat) at 99/9 Moo 1, Bo Phloi Subdistrict, Bo Phloi District, Kanchanaburi 71160. It is one of 23 such regional campuses created to push Bangkok-based degree study out into the provinces.
A regional campus is a service and teaching point rather than a separate institution: it handles new-student registration, lecture sessions, examinations and registry business for provincial students, while the degree itself is conferred by Ramkhamhaeng University in Bangkok. For a working adult in Kanchanaburi it is usually the cheapest route to a Thai bachelor's degree without moving.
Notable facts
- In Bo Phloi District, roughly 40km north of Kanchanaburi town -- not in Mueang, so it is missed by any list that looks only at the town.
- One of Ramkhamhaeng University's 23 regional campuses; degrees are awarded by RU in Bangkok.
- Functions as a registration, lecture and examination centre for provincial students rather than a residential campus.
