Chotiwat Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has expressed its intention to collaborate with King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), which has extensive experience in research development and education that integrates real-world application. The School of Liberal Arts, the Faculty of Science, and the Graduate School of Management and Innovation have jointly developed a Non-Degree Credit-Bearing Program in Food Industry Management, delivered through a blended format that includes onsite learning (at both the company and KMUTT), hybrid learning, and experiential learning. This program is scheduled to launch in Semester 1/2025.
To prepare for this initiative, the curriculum development team from KMUTT conducted an on-site visit during 19–20 May 2025. On Monday, 19 May 2025, a preparatory meeting and discussion on collaborative teaching and learning management were held at Chotiwat Manufacturing Co., Ltd., with 15 participants in attendance. On Tuesday, 20 May 2025, the team attended a curriculum meeting at Songkhla Rajabhat University, followed by a visit to Tinsulanonda Fisheries College to interview the college’s administrators. As a key partner in supplying vocational-level (Diploma) graduates to Chotiwat, the college provided valuable insights to support the preparation of students for the upcoming program.
