Ubon Ratchathani Universities

[mnbcm]

Are these the only four universities in Ubon Ratchathani? I'd be curious to know what their specialties are and any opinions from anyone who has taught there. Thanks!

I would only consider 2 of those institutions to be universities.

Ubon Ratchathani University is fairly new. I believe their specialty was agriculture when it was born. Now they seem to be expanding in order to increase student enrollment.

Rajabhat was a Teachers College but now offer many majors. I taught there for 4+ years.

Ratchathani University is a private institution. I personally would not classify it as a university.

UBISD also called Soon Lao or Lao Center by locals is a skill development center to teach skills to unskilled people wanting to enter the labor force. They offer courses in Thai massage, mechanics, computers, cooking etc. I have taught English there in the evenings as part of their community continuing education program.
