King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology (KMIT) was established on 4 February, 1960 by the Department of Vocational Education, Ministry of Education, through the merge of Thonburi Technical Institute (TTI), North Bangkok Technical Institute, and Nonthaburi Telecommunication Institute. In 1986, the three campuses of KMIT became three autonomous institutes, each having the status of university. KMIT Thonburi campus became King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Thonburi (KMITT) and later, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT). In 1998, KMUTT became the first among public universities in Thailand to receive full autonomy.

KMUTT is a leading technology academy in Thailand with approximately 17,000 students in total from undergraduate to doctoral levels. It is one of the nine National Research Universities (NRU) in Thailand, being the only leading Thai university in Engineering Program under the AIMS Programme and one of the four Thai-SHARE members under the European Union Support to Higher Education in the ASEAN Region. KMUTT excels in research and academic performance, particularly in Architecture, Bioresources, Energy, Engineering, Environment, Linguistics, Science, and Technology.
