Prince of Songkla University was the first government university in Southern Thailand. It was established in 1967. As of 2003, it had 24,011 students. The university is named after Mahidol Adulyadej, Prince of Songkla (Songkhla), the father of both King Ananda Mahidol (Rama VIII) and Bhumipol Adulyadej (Rama IX). During its first year, the students studied at a temporary campus in Bangkok. In 1968 the permanent campus was established in Pattani. The campus in Hat Yai was opened in 1971 and is now the biggest campus, having more than 50% of the university's students. Other campuses were established in Phuket (1977), Surat Thani (1990) and Trang (1991). In addition, the Pattani campus may become an independent university in the future.

This university make me think about my further education for my Master since I kinda like Thailand... I've seen this campus before and it's much more scenery and peaceful than UTAR Kampar because it's situated near a hill. Nice...
Plus, the course offered is in reasonable price and the requirement is quite low for me to score... I kinda love the Master course they offered...
Maybe in one day... ONE DAY~
