The philosophy of the College reflects the vision of Prince Mahidol who asserted that the purpose of education is to contribute to the social and economic development of the society. Using this vision as our guide, the College seeks to create a learner-centered environment that enables our students to learn how to apply knowledge of best management practices drawn from global and local sources.
