Ramkhamhaeng University, Phang Nga Regional Campus at a glance
Ramkhamhaeng University's Phang Nga Regional Campus -- formally one of RU's "Regional Campuses in Honour of the King" (สาขาวิทยบริการเฉลิมพระเกียรติ) -- was established in 2011 at local residents' request, so that Phang Nga families would not need to send students all the way to Bangkok for a Ramkhamhaeng education. The university's own campus site gives its location as Moo 9, Thai Mueang Subdistrict, Thai Mueang District, Phang Nga.
As with Ramkhamhaeng's other regional campuses nationwide, the Phang Nga campus provides admissions, lecture halls, examination facilities and student-registration services for Ramkhamhaeng's open-admission bachelor's degree system, letting residents of Phang Nga and nearby districts study without permanently relocating to the main Bangkok campus.
One correction BAANLYY is making to its own earlier text rather than to anyone else's: this entry previously stated the campus occupies a 50-rai site. That figure was carried without a source, and a re-check on 2 September 2026 could not confirm it against Ramkhamhaeng's own published campus material. Per BAANLYY's standing rule that the claim to withdraw is our own unsourced one, the figure has been removed rather than repeated. The district and subdistrict, which are what actually decide a tenant's commute, school catchment and immigration office, are confirmed.

Notable facts
- Established 2011 by local demand -- one of Ramkhamhaeng's network of "Regional Campuses in Honour of the King" spread across the country.
- Genuine bachelor's-degree study via Ramkhamhaeng's open-admission system, not merely an exam centre -- and the only site in Phang Nga where a full university's own degree is read.
- Shares Thai Mueang District with a second post-secondary site, Thai Mueang Industrial and Community Education College -- the two are unrelated institutions that happen to sit in the same district.
