The Law Faculty is acknowledged both nationally and internationally as a leader in tertiary legal education in Thailand. Our prominence as an educational institution is attributable to our commitment to high quality support for students and our excellence in research and teaching. We offer students a wide choice of programs and research supervision.

For fifty years, the Faculty of Law had produced a large number of highly qualified judges, prosecutors and lawyers. Moreover, the research output of the Law Faculty has firmly established its place as a leading legal research centre, and we have consistently received prestigious grants and awards from national and international organisations.

The Faculty has over forty dedicated teachers and researchers, many of who are prominent in their fields. It also has the strong assistance of adjunct professors drawn from leading Thai lawyers and visiting international academics.

I hope you will consider pursuing studies at the Chulalongkorn Faculty of Law and I am confident that you will find it both a culturally rich and rewarding experience.
