Asian Institute of Technology (AIT)

On campus. But if you can, stay in the e,j or k dorm, at least they have private bath and small kitcen and aircon.

Nightlife in BKK city is not so cheap, but still OK. Food on campus is cheap and bad. Very poor quality of the food in the cafeteria.

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.

nothing that would have changed my experience here.

AIT is a world class academic institution. But it is a pretty boring place to live for two or more years... It is far from LIFE in downtown Bangkok. One thing more, what surprised me, the AIT being a technology institute and all, was the lousy internet connection in the student dorms. Even though I opted for ADSL connection for 450 baht per month the internet was grindingly slow, and sometimes you were not able to access websites like Yahoo at all... This was quite annoying as it is really convenient to be able to surf the net for info in your room. But this was not always a smooth and easy experience, despite the fact I actually paid extra for a faster connection. Frankly, the internet connection speed in the dorms sucked! Many students complained about this.
