These scholarships cover various essential aspects, including living expenses, accommodation allowances, settlement funds, book allowances, and thesis support.

Initiated in 2000, the Thailand International Postgraduate Program (TIPP) serves as a framework for granting postgraduate scholarships to developing partner countries. Recognizing the significance of knowledge sharing in South-South Cooperation, TIPP facilitates the exchange of experiences and best practices between Thailand and its partner nations, contributing to long-term and sustainable development.

With a commitment to sharing Thailand’s expertise and experiences with the world, the AITC training courses and TIPP scholarships concentrate on development themes categorized into five main areas: Climate Change, Food Security, Public Health, other topics related to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the “Sufficiency Economy Philosophy” (SEP). The addition of SEP is particularly noteworthy, as it offers insight into Thailand’s home-grown development approach, a crucial element driving the country’s sustainable development across various sectors.
