With the policy to distribute educational opportunities to other regions of the country, Silpakorn University expanded to a new campus in Phetchaburi province, which is the Phetchaburi Campus. This is the university’s third campus, the others being the Wang Tha Phra Campus, in Bangkok and the Sanam Chandra Palace Campus, in Nakhon Pathom, respectively.
As the university’s twelfth faculty, the Faculty of Management Science started providing instruction on the Phetchaburi Campus in 2002. It is the aim to produce graduates who are equipped with adequate abilities to work freelance to some extent, basic business abilities and the abilities to work in private organisations and businesses. The instruction takes into account the abilities to respond to service users’ needs and satisfaction, quality of life and environmental quality.
