Course Structure

What do you study in Mechanical Engineering?

This is a curriculum in line with the New Generation Graduate Program that Sripatum University has been approved by the government to operate. The railway engineering curriculum focuses on engineering operations and management, without emphasizing calculations for designing technology or equipment, but rather on understanding the relationship between operations in various technologies involved in the railway engineering system. This is so that students understand the operational process and can work efficiently in line with the needs of the railway industry in Thailand. The curriculum is designed to provide students with basic engineering courses, engineering management, and railway technology from large railway educational institutions and industries in China for 1 year, integrating learning from actual training in railway establishments in the country in the form of Work Integrated Learning (WIL), along with the transfer of railway engineering experiences from experts continuously every academic year.

  • Overseas internship from technology owners (1 year internship in China)
  • Annual on-the-job training from railway system agencies/operators every academic year
  • The teaching content focuses on direct professional practice, supporting both basic rail systems and future rail systems.
  • Concise, clear, appropriate number of credits
  • One of the first groups of railway engineers to graduate in this field in the country
  • Scholarship throughout the course

What do you learn about the railway system?

• Year 1: Fundamentals of engineering and engineering management such as process improvement concepts, maintenance management, engineering economics, safety engineering, project management, quality management and standards applied to railway systems, with additional foreign languages.
