Organisation profile
The Departmental of Plant Science at Mahidol University was established in 1992, as announced in the 109th Royal Gazette dated September 18, 1992.
Our department continuously expands and improves our plant science-related programs- in the classroom, with updated lecture contents and pedagogy, in the laboratory, with current equipment and new technology, and in the fields to enrich student’s experience. Students are also taught by invited guest lecturers and researchers from Thai and international universities. In addition, students can participate in several conferences to present their research and discuss their opinions with senior scientists and their peers.
Other than teaching undergraduate and graduate students, our staff is committed to performing world-class research, in collaboration with other departments within Mahidol University and with other universities all over the world. The department also hosts a number of seminars in special topics, such as plant tissue culture, technology for orchid production, preparation of plant chromosomes, and botanical drawing. Other academic trainings provided by our department include internship in plant science, science camps, and support for science projects in other institutes and schools.
