Laughter, cultural discovery, and new friendships filled the Wiset Si Samut Room on November 6, 2026, as Assumption University’s Office of International Affairs (OIA) hosted Welcome Day for incoming Semester 2/2026 exchange students at the Suvarnabhumi Campus.
Representing partner institutions across the globe including the University of Nürtingen-Geislingen, Mainz University of Applied Sciences, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences, HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht, Gakushuin University, Seisen University, University of Wisconsin–Whitewater and ISEP. Students spent the afternoon immersing themselves in AU communities at the Suvarnabhumi campus.
Building on the initial friendships built during their pre-semester meetup at the Hua Mak Campus on October 27, the event helped exchange students connect with more AU student buddies & communities. To kick start the afternoon, Dr. Radha Sirianukul, Director of the Center for Global Engagement and Partnerships (MSME), gave the group a warm welcome, followed by the Assumption University Student Organization (AUSO) energetic sharing on campus clubs and upcoming events.
As the program moved into the interactive mode, students explored AU’s history, picked up practical tips on Thai etiquette, and experienced a live guzheng performance and Chinese calligraphy at the Confucius Institute. The afternoon concluded with a scenic tour of the Saint Louis Marie de Montfort Chapel before everyone gathered in Room SR101 for casual conversation and wrap-up Kahoot.
To our international exchange students, welcome to a new chapter at Assumption University a vibrant community where cultures meet, friendships grow, and your world exchanges here.
Welcome to a new chapter in AU where your world exchange here!
