Thammasat University Collaboration

In March 2002 the Office of International Programs hosted a delegation from Thammasat University, Bangkok, Thailand. The UTHSC-H has had exchange activity with Thammasat University since 1996 when the first agreement of cooperation was signed. The delegation included the dean and the associate professor and deputy dean of faculty of Allied Health Sciences, and the dean of faculty of dentistry. They discussed possible research collaborations between UTHSC-H and Thammasat University.
