Assumption University, Catholic university in Bangkok, Thailand.
Assumption University is a higher education institution in Bangkok, Thailand, spread across several locations with its main campus in Samut Prakan district. Concrete buildings house lecture halls and laboratories, while green spaces between facilities provide breaks.
The Brothers of St. Gabriel established the school in 1969 to teach commerce and management. Thai authorities granted it full status in 1990, allowing expanded degree programs.
Daily prayers take place in the campus chapel, reflecting the Catholic foundation and welcoming visitors throughout the week. The library shelves hold both Thai and international volumes, supporting research in business and technology fields.
Most courses run from June to October and November to March, with breaks between terms. Visitors should check library and facility hours, as they may vary during academic holidays.
A statue of Mary wearing a gold crown stands in the middle of the grounds, placed there in 2001 after a blessing ceremony. Students from nearly 100 countries attend lectures in English within the same halls.
