My friend says he does know of English speaking UNI and most are low key in thier methods , Thais tend to brain-wash more than teach , in his opinion .

If you want to study you should know some basics of the Thai language. Sites like learn-thai-podcast com or thai-langauge com will get you started.

Please keep in mind that university degrees from Thailand are not recognized in most western countries. So watch out that you don't waste your time.

You can apply at AIT ( Asian Institute of Technology ). I think AIT is situated in Nonthaburi, about 1 hour drive from BKK. You can find the information on its website. Yes, it's written in English! My senior friend graduated from AIT, she said the students were from all over the world. AIT is recognize as one of the world class institue. You should be well off with finding works, and internships over there. The website provides extensive info. Enjoy!

Oops, there are over 30 international programs conducted in English in Thailand. Not all are of international standards, of course, with many of them having US textbooks as the only element.

If you want an environment fitting a westerner, avoid rural and 'name' universities.

There's a Web site about international programs at Thai universities: studyinthailand.org.

The offer a forum as well.

There is an EXCELLENT MBA program - in English - at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok. The program is call Sasin Institute of Management and is tied in with the Kellogg School and Wharton in the USA - and has visiting professors back and forth.

Bangkok University has several all English programs and numerous universities around the country have English-medium graduate programs.

Prince of Songkla University, just as one example has an MBA and Hospitality program in English. My guess is that the hospitality program, based on Phuket, is probably fairly decent. Probably not up there with UNLV or some of the Swiss schools - but probably fairly decent for someone wanting to get their feet wet internationally. The location affords the opportunity for internships at a quite a few first class - and a couple world-class - resorts in the area.
