Asian Institute of Technology (AIT)

I was satisfied with courses and teachers.

The library is too small. Often have to go to other university libraries in downtown bkk, it takes about an hour or more to go to e.g. Chulalongkorn library, so can be quite time consuming. Also, the internet connection in the student dorms is very bad. Super slow. I think this a bad and strange thing for an institute that prides itself of being a leading technology institute; the internet speed in the student dorms is like you used a 14k modem.... Very annoying, I tell you.

Courses were interesting and the lecturers very good.

The library is quite pathetic. Much too small to be a university library. You basically have to rely on books from other university libraries around BKK. It can take a lot of time though to go to other libraries and find books. The staff at AIT library were friendly and helpful though. The library is just to small. The AIT does however live up to excellent academic standards in terms of teaching and course content.

For me, it has been much more work studying in Thailand compared to my studies in Germany. In Thailand, there are constanly assignments, papers, presentations and group works. Moreover, in addition to the final exams there are also mid-term exams.

Academically very High standard. I followed MBA courses (was originally doing Msc, so kind of good quality). Host university is 3rd best in Asia.

much better than my school in Vietnam

for some cases, asian teachers were a bit nationalistic

AIT library is very small. Not good. To get relevant books you often have to go to Chulalongkorn or Mahidol libraries, which are 1-2 hours away... AIT library is not an adequate university library. Friendly staff though, but way too few books.

Expand the library. And move the garbage dump!! and stop the neverending noisy maintenance work on campus! Disturbs your studies.
