Prof. Dr. Chanchai Panthongviriyakul, President of Khon Kaen University, said about the curriculum (in summary) that:<\/p>\n\n<p>Thailand&#8217;s mega-project, the Bangkok-Nong Khai route, is a Thai-Chinese collaboration that will connect Thailand to ASEAN and reach China. The project will be completed in 2025 and open for use in 2029.<\/p>\n\n<p><em>The construction process is divided into 2 phases as follows:<\/em><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Construction of Phase 1 of the Bangkok &#8211; Nakhon Ratchasima route<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Construction of Phase 2 of the Nakhon Ratchasima &#8211; Nong Khai route<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><em>The high-speed rail project also has a route through Laos, passing through Nong Khai, Khon Kaen and to Bangkok.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<p><em>In carrying out the construction of this project, Khon Kaen University is aware of the importance of producing graduates with the potential to support this project.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n<p>In addition to the construction of high-speed rail projects in Thailand, there are also construction projects in Myanmar, Laos, and Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n<p>High-speed trains play a significant role in driving the economy and industry. Therefore, Thailand should plan and prepare its personnel to support the future job market in this field.<\/p>\n\n<p>As for the progress of the curriculum, we are currently in the process of discussing the curriculum details in order to summarize the teaching content.<\/p>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/th.kku.ac.th\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/th.kku.ac.th\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High-speed railway engineering program to support the high-speed railway job market in cooperation with China&#8217;s leading university Southwest Jiaotong<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3537,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5900","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-1"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5900","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5900"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5900\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3537"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5900"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5900"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bkkterminal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5900"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
