Greetings from Thailand

Tell us a little something about yourself?

My name is Hataitip Jirathun. Most people call me Tor, it’s my nickname. I’m an exchange faculty from Bangkok University, Thailand. At this university, I’m the Head of Student Services and International Exchange of Bangkok University International College. My main responsibility is to take care of exchange students, both inbound and outbound.

How long are you staying and how did you end up coming to SAMK?

I’ve arrived Finland since January 7 and will be here until March 25. So, basically I’ll be here for about 3 months. Bangkok University and SAMK have been partners for years and in fact I’m the 7th faculty who’s here to teach at SAMK. I’m also here under the ASEM-DUO scholarship which is a two-way exchange of faculty between two educational institutions, one from Europe and the other from Asia.
