AIT and the Finnish Ministry for Foreign Affairs have agreed to the continuation of “AIT-Finland Collaboration in Education and Training” project with the support coming from the Finnish Government worth more than Euro 3.1 Million (about 144 Million Baht).
The agreement was signed on 26 February 2007 for the 2007-2009 project phase, including faculty secondments and scholarships. The objectives of the project are to promote Asian human-resource development activities in the fields of science, engineering and technology and in particular to facilitate a more attractive orientation of the Information and Communications Technologies and Pulp & Paper programmes at AIT in order to achieve their long-term sustainability.
The Institute is most grateful to the Government of Finland which has been a longstanding and generous partner in its project.
