2 Undergraduate Handbook TEP- TEPE (2016) Page 2 Thammasat University, the second oldest university in Thailand, was founded in It is one of Thailand s leading institute for the high quality of its teaching and research, with enrollment of over 16,000 undergraduates and 5,000 graduates each year. The University was originally dedicated to the teaching of humanities and social sciences. Realisting a marked impact of science and technolo gy on the country s development, Thammasat Universities proposed to help the national need by providing an extensive range of courses in science and technology at its Rangsit Campus, Pathum Thani. Besides the recula undergraduate course conducted in Thai, the University also offers various international programmes, which are taught entirely in English, in the field of Engineering, Business Administration, Economics, and British/American Studies. Faculty of Engineering, set in the 200-rai campus, was inaugurated in 1989 in response to the severe shortage of qualified engineers in Thailand. Its mission is to provide strong background in both engineering education and training to the students. The curricula, thus, place an emphasis on both theory and practice. Students will have the opportunity to experience the working function of engineering fields by visiting the industrial organizations relevant to their major discilplines. It is anticipated that our graduates have strong academic background, extensive practical knowledge, and high professional morality. The Twinning Engineering Programmes, was established in 1996 as a joint effort between the Faculty of Engineering, Thammasat University and the University of Nottingham, England. This programme has proved to be successful in developing well-trained engineers for Thai and international industries. In a continuing effort to provide more choice and diversity of engineering education for our students, we extended our collaboration to the Faculty of Engineering, the University of New South Wales, Australia in The programme has been working closely with its partner institutions to provide a wide range of opportunities for students to gain higher level qualifications in engineering. After graduation, some students have chosen to go on to further their studies in higher degrees in the leading universities around the world. Others receive job offers in leading government agencies, state enterprises, and private corporations Recruiters seek out TEP engineering graduates not only for their engineering preparation graduates but also because our students know how communicate effectively. The prepare students for successful study at the University of Nottingham and the University of New South Wales, all course in the programme are taught entirely in English. The teaching staff consists mainly of regular lecturers in the Faculty of Engineering, Thammasat University. The Faculty of members comprise of exceptionally able group of scholars. Most of them hold doctorates from leading universities around the world. Lecturers from other leading Thai Universities are also invited to teach from time to time.

8 Undergraduate Handbook TEP- TEPE (2016) Page 8 TEPE General Information Thammasat English Programme of Engineering (TEPE) The costs that are incurred to take a full time course abroad can be significantly expensive. One option open to students is to study under TEPE programme. Students will gain the same quality as the TEP, but the overall costs are much lower. TEPE students take all courses at Thammasat University where all teaching and learning are done through a mixture of lectures, class discussions, brainstorming, group work, and presentations. With a small class size, students enjoy the benefits of exchanging their ideas and opinions with their instructor. This stimulates new ideas and new areas for discussion. Students occasionally take trips to factories to receive hands-on experience. Moreover, a training session at an industrial company is required for students to experience the real- world work environment. English proficiency has become an asset for anyone aiming to achieve academic or business recognition at the international level. TEPE has acknowledged this need by placing English language as one of its priorities in the course structure. Throughout the curriculum, a wide range of English courses will be offered to elevate students' competence up to the standard level. Students will be trained in all skills, which are listening, reading, writing, and speaking, so that their abilities can be comparable to those graduating from universities abroad. During university breaks, English camps are arranged either in Thailand or abroad as an opportunity for students to sharpen their communicative skills and to apply what they have learnt in class to real life practice. Before their graduation from TEPE, students are required to submit an English proficiency test result (IELTS or TOEFL), which meets the programmes minimum requirement. In this way, all TEPE students are ensured to be equipped with English skills at the standard level needed for further study abroad or for a career in an international organization. To qualify for the award of Bachelor of Engineering degree, candidates must have completed all required courses with the Grade Point Average of at least 2.0 and TOEFL score of at least 550 (or 79 for Internet-based test or 550 for Institutional), or IELTS score of least 6.0, or TU-GET score of lease 550. In addition, they must not owe any fees or other sums to the university. Programmes of study Students will spend 4 years at Thammasat University. After completing all the degree requirements, they will be conferred a Bachelor of Engineering degree from Thammasat University. For the TEPE programme, six engineering majors are offered : Chemical Engineering Civil Engineering Electrical Engineering Industrial Engineering Mechanical Engineering Automotive Engineering

16 Undergraduate Handbook TEP- TEPE (2016) Page 16 Class schedule The class schedule will be announced at the beginning of each semester. A course instructor may agree with students to change a class time provided that no other classes are affected by the change. Class attendance Students are expected to attend classes regularly. A minimum of 70 percent class attendance is mandatory to qualify for a final examination. Therefore, students, who find that they can no longer attend a class, must officially withdraw in writing through the TEP-TEPE Academic Affairs Officer within the allowable period (see the academic calendar). Grading system Evaluation of a student s achievement in a course is recorded by letter grade symbols as follows: Grades Achievement GPA Points A Excellent 4.0 B+ Very Good 3.5 B Good 3.0 C+ Fairly Good 2.5 C Fair 2.0 D+ Poor 1.5 D Very Poor 1.0 F Failed 0.0 Other letter grades, without credit points, are assigned for course work taken as follows: W Withdrawal S Satisfactory U Unsatisfactory Course s grades are calculated at the end of each semester. A grade report will be sent out to students home address by the TEP-TEPE Student Affairs Officer. Students are graded for their required work, which may vary from course to course, during the semester. This may include, but are not limited to, the following: quizzes term papers book reports assignments class participation attendance midterm and final examinations All assignments, essays, reports or research papers, including computer work, must be the student s original work. Grade Point Average and Cumulative Grade Point Average

17 Undergraduate Handbook TEP- TEPE (2016) Page 17 The student s Grade Point Average (GPA) is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of credits attempted for the semester. The number of quality points is computed by multiplying a GPA point of the grade earned by a number of credits of the course taken. The total number of credits attempted is computed by adding the credits for all courses, in which the student has earned grades of A, B+, B, C+, C, D+, D, or F. The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) will be used to define the student s academic standing. It is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned thus far by the corresponding total number of credits attempted. Probation Students whose CGPA falls below 2.00, except the first semester of the first year, will receive Warning 1, Warning 2, or be placed on the academic Probation, and immediately notified on their grade report according to the conditions shown in Fig.

19 Undergraduate Handbook TEP- TEPE (2016) Page 19 Removal from probation Students may be removed from probation when the CGPA of the probationary semester becomes 2.00 or higher. Failure to achieve the minimum CGPA standards in the allotted time is a ground for immediate dismissal. Dismissal Students who fall into one of the following categories will be dismissed from TEP-TEPE: 1. Receiving CGPA below 1.50 for the first two semesters of study. 2. Students who fail to be removed from academic probation within the time allowed. 3. Students who have repeatedly violated the university rules and regulations that govern student conduct, some of which include, but not limited to the followings: - Plagiarism of assignments - Cheating during examinations - Drug use - Damage to the university s property or reputation - Gambling, stealing and other inappropriate behaviors Repetition of a course Only a course with an F or a W grade must be re-enrolled. However, students receiving a D or D+ grade in any course that requires at least a C grade in accordance with the requirement of Council of Engineer may retake that course. Right of appeal Students have the right to appeal for the revision of a course assessment. For the midterm examination, students should directly contact their lecturers within 7 days from the date of announcement of the test result. For the final examination, a request with fee must be submitted within 30 days from the date of receiving the grade report from the Office of the Registrar.
