For me, studying here at the Faculty of ICT has prepared me to be ready in learning new things at work. Many courses provided by ICT are very crucial for my current work; such as Network, Database and Programming. Indeed, the program curriculum offers wide knowledge of various disciplines in IT, which helps equip students with all essential knowledge needed in IT career path.

Other learning opportunities were constantly offered to me throughout my 4 years of studying at the Faculty of ICT. Every year, the Faculty offers many interesting activities to students including internship abroad (Japan, Taiwan, Germany, etc.), IT competition, operational training and so on.

During my time at the Faculty of ICT, I learned about various and broad knowledge of ICT which led me to understand the whole concept and be able to apply it to my daily work. Many of the courses provided by the Faculty are very essential and beneficial for me in doing my current job. For example, Database and Data Mining & Data Warehouse courses taught me how to analyze data efficiently.

Before I studied at the Faculty of ICT, I had no any IT or programming knowledge at all. The Faculty of ICT granted me 4 whole years of study. The Faculty taught me how to write my first code until I was able to develop programs/applications on my own. Also, the Faculty of ICT provided me with opportunities to compete in various projects, some of which I won prizes. I feel very fortunate to be able to study at this Faculty as I got to know a lot of good friends, seniors, and instructors. Currently, I have a good job and owns a company.

At that time, I still could not answer to myself what was it exactly I liked; whether I proceeded further study, worked or even in what field I wanted to work. But because I have broad and core knowledge from our ICT program, I had the chance to work in various fields in technology that requires me to learn new technology in limited time. Studying in the computer field helped me develop logical thinking skills that can help me sort out and solve problems systematically, I can honestly say that if I had not studied at ICT Mahidol, I would not have made it here today.

I have very positive experience with ICT Mahidol. Academically speaking, ICT subjects are broad and more of conceptual rather than practical. It seems that you have no idea what and how you can apply your knowledge in the real world job. But a couple of years later, you’ll find out that almost every IT related jobs require your fundamental knowledge learned from ICT Mahidol. Beside the academic perspective, I find that people here: including instructors, faculty staff, and college friends, are really nice and supportive. They taught me in-and-out of the classroom and we shared a lot of good memories together.
