UP Scholarships to Cambodia
Giving opportunities to others is a blessing. Extending educational opportunities to those in need is yet the best.
University of Phayao has admirably participated in the Royal Scholarship under Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Education Project to the Kingdom of Cambodia since 2012. Over 30 Cambodian students have, so far, received UP Scholarships to pursue their bachelor’s degrees at University of Phayao. While some continue their study at a higher level after their study at UP, many of them have become contributing members of society as talented and skilled graduates in the workforce, both in their home country and in Thailand.
This year, on January 26-27, University of Phayao awarded the praiseworthy Royal Scholarship to 6 Cambodian students to study for a bachelor’s degree in 4 majors from 3 schools as follows:
- Food Science and Technology (2 scholarships), School of Agriculture and Natural Resources
- Biology (1 scholarship), School of Science
- Chemistry (1 scholarship), School of Science
- Information Technology (2 scholarships), School of Information and Communication Technology
Those are full scholarships, covering tuition fees, dormitory, monthly allowance, visa and immigration fees, insurance, settlement money, and textbooks. University of Phayao has done this with sheer humanitarian purpose, hoping to alleviate any possible financial problems imposing on Cambodian students during their life journey to higher education.
In return, All UP Cambodian scholarship recipients are expected to perform their best in their respective fields of study so that they would become quality UP graduates in the future. Equally importantly, each of them should, for benefit of all parties involved, be open and enthusiastic about making international environment more meaningful and visible on UP campus.
