The institution was established in 2002 to expand higher education opportunities in the southern Shan State region. This opening represented an important step forward for educational development in a historically underserved area.
The campus brings together students from different ethnic groups across Myanmar, creating a multilingual environment where people interact and study side by side. This diversity shapes how the institution feels and how knowledge is shared among its members.
