Chulalongkorn University is an educational institution for academic study and highly skilled professions. Its aims are to be a knowledge–based institution with pioneering research, to provide learners with a high quality of education, and to support and apply academic knowledge for the development of highly skilled professions.
In line with these goals, Chulalongkorn University continuously arranges academic and employee development by creating learning courses and training projects, and building an environment that helps facilitate life–long learning for employees. The university also places importance on health improvement, seeing that employees’ health is of paramount importance. This is because our employees are regarded as an important driving force for the university to achieve its goals in the future.
Chulalongkorn University has a total of 40 internal offices, situated at various locations in Thailand.
Our employees represent a diversity of religions and cultures and can thus contribute to produce good outcomes for the university for the benefit of society.

The university offers a wide selection of fields for learning courses and training projects that can respond to employees’ different interests to promote learning for the development of their skills and expertise in the currently fast–changing situation. For example, we have a course that enables staff to upskill at work via Learn@Home, or knowledge development about their work via HR e–Learning.
To help facilitate learning by employees who seek to keep pace with modern conditions, the university has organized online lessons for all staff who have an interest in skill development in five areas. They can contact Chula MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) for training, including quality of life development such as how to prepare yourself to live after retirement, and how to develop a financial plan when moving into working life.
In addition to learning, employees’ health is another issue that the university considers important, in particular during the post–Covid–19 pandemic period. The university’s Vaccine Center for Covid–19 Prevention has remained open to serve all employees. The university also supports preventive care as part of helping staff maintain good physical condition, and has created a promotional plan for them to take good care of their health through the “Gracious Chula Staff” Project.
Sports skills on offer to employees include walking, jogging, golf, Zumba dance, yoga, swimming and other activities. Employees can apply through the project to join any sports activities they are interested in free of charge. Even those with no sports equipment can apply.

To encourage a healthy lifestyle and enhance staff relations between faculty members, the university organized the 43rd sports event for staff between 24 April and 19 May 2023. Eighteen different sports were on offer – including golf, athletics, football, traditional sports and the Chulalongkorn University Virtual Walk and Virtual Run.

To help the CU staff community to live a comfortable and digitized life with co–working spaces and a work–from–home system, Chulalongkorn University has worked with Kasikornbank to create and design the
CU NEX staff application with many functions linked to knowledge–based data and services on mobile devices. Available for both Apple and Android devices since May 2020, the app is regularly updated with functions to help make both work life and daily life easier.

Chulalongkorn University also attaches high importance to its surrounding area and environment because they too have a bearing on the health and quality of life of employees. A good quality of life enables them to work more effectively. The university and CU staff have jointly created green spaces in the middle of Bangkok — Chamchuri Parks and the CU Centenary Park. Transport options include bicycle, electric scooter and the CU Shuttle Bus — an electric vehicle to serve CU staff in commuting around the campus.
