We will go through the details of this scholarship program, its perks, and the application process step by step in this article. Thailand’s government, through the Thailand International Postgraduate Program (TIPP), is offering international students fully supported master’s scholarships for the years 2022-2023. Thailand government scholarships will cover living expenses, lodging expenses, settlement money, book expenses, and thesis expenses.
In the year 2000, the Thailand International Postgraduate Program (TIPP) was established as a framework for offering postgraduate scholarships to poor countries. TIPP, which believes that knowledge sharing is a critical component of South-South cooperation, provides opportunities for Thailand and its partners to share their experiences and best practices in order to promote long-term and sustainable development for all.
The AITC training courses and TIPP scholarships, which aim to share Thailand’s best practices and experience with the rest of the world, focus on development topics of our expertise, which can be categorized into five themes: Climate Change, Food Security, Public Health, other topics related to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and “Sufficiency Economy Philosophy” or SEP which Thailand is proud to introduce as the high lighted theme. SEP was established with the goal of providing insight into our homegrown development approach, which is a critical aspect in keeping Thailand on a stable growth path toward sustainable development in many fields.
