The Electrical Engineering Program School of Engineering University of Phayao, under the supervision of Dr. Suraphon Damrongkittikul, the School member responsible for Course 262456, Electrical Safety, promoted experiential learning beyond the classroom by providing third-year electrical engineering students with an opportunity to participate in a training session entitled “Fundamental Principles of First Aid for Accident Victims and Basic Life Support (CPR).” The session was conducted by Mr. Payon Duangthip, Acting Head of the Accident and Emergency Nursing Unit at University of Phayao Hospital, who delivered specialized instruction and supervised practical training to enhance students' essential lifesaving competencies. The activity took place on 12 November 2026 at University of Phayao Hospital.

The training aimed to strengthen students' knowledge, understanding, and practical competencies in basic first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Particular emphasis was placed on developing their ability to assess emergency situations, prioritize their own safety and that of accident victims, and perform appropriate lifesaving interventions for individuals experiencing cardiac and respiratory arrest. Through expert-led instruction combined with hands-on practice, students acquired essential emergency response skills, enhanced their confidence, and strengthened their preparedness to respond effectively to critical situations that may arise in everyday life and professional engineering environments.

This initiative reflects the School of Engineering, University of Phayao's commitment to integrating academic knowledge with practical experience in real-world settings. In particular, it underscores the importance of cultivating a strong safety culture within electrical engineering practices, where accident prevention, risk mitigation, and effective emergency response are fundamental to occupational health and safety. Furthermore, the activity supports the School's mission to develop well-rounded engineering graduates who possess not only professional knowledge and technical expertise but also essential lifesaving competencies, a strong sense of social responsibility, and the ability to apply their knowledge and skills to contribute meaningfully to the well-being of society.
