Hello all,

Has anyone any experience of doing the Thai language as an educational course (I mean as a qualification, I hope this makes sense, I mean as a formal course with a qualification attached as opposed to learning purely to use).

I have done internet searches and found degree courses in SE Asia studies with Thai language and once spoke to someone who had done such a degree. There is so many search possibilities on the internet it is hard to find the information I am looking for with : UK,Thai language degree.

Would just be interested to know, especially if it is possible to study Thai outside of a formal college.university but work on a criteria towards some form of recognised standard.

Thank you everybody.

hi will we share us language , My Thai is good < i am Thai> i will not finish education i will be freshman i love to learn new language, will you teach me , i will teach you ,OK ? share

I think Leeds university run a Thai Studies course with one of the four years based in Thailand.

Failing that try SOAS University of London

There is a Thai studies course designed especially for Foreigners at Thammasat University .... you can find out the information on the internet also ...

If you're in the UK then, yes, SOAS, which is an adjunct of the Univ. of London does a degree-level course.

Scouse.

Thanks everybody, looks like all courses are full-time degrees, was hoping for a course where I could study Thai whilst working towards a qualification but I suppose really the true mark is for me just to keep learning and improving my Thai.
