It's March Already!

I can't believe the last month of my visit is here already! It's been nonstop with traveling in central Thailand. A group of graduate students (and one recent graduate that I've known for several years) took me to Korat--they were wonderful tour guides! It was fun interacting with them outside of the more formal classroom/university environment. I also had the opportunity to visit Silpakorn University in Nakhon-Pathom Province, and met with Dean Jurairat Nunthanid and several faculty. Dean Jurairat just became Dean a few months ago. This is a relatively new Faculty of Pharmacy, with the first BS(Pharmacy) class graduating in 1991 with 26 students. In addition to the BS program, they have a MS in Heaalth System Management (70 students), a PhD in Social and Administrative Pharmacy (8 students), MS in Consumer Protection (day and weekend program) and MS in Pharmaceutical Management in collaboration with 2 other universities.
