The Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI) launched a major job fair at Bangkokthonburi University to bridge the gap between academia and the workforce.
On September 16, 2026, the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI), in collaboration with the Department of Employment, officially opened the 'MHESI JOB CONNECT @ BTU 2026' event at Bangkokthonburi University. Dr. Phanphetisak Arunee, Deputy Permanent Secretary of MHESI, presided over the opening ceremony alongside university leadership and Department of Employment officials.
The event serves as a platform for students to engage directly with over 65 leading companies across various industries. Participating organizations include major Thai conglomerates such as CPF Group, CP All, Makro, TRUE, and Central Retail. The initiative aims to facilitate recruitment and provide students with direct access to potential employers, effectively bridging the gap between academic studies and the professional world.
For residents and those navigating the local job market, this event highlights the ongoing efforts by Thai authorities to improve graduate employability and strengthen ties between educational institutions and the private sector. While the event successfully brought together a significant number of major employers, it remains to be confirmed how many students secured immediate employment offers or internships as a direct result of this specific fair. Further details regarding future iterations of this job matching program have not yet been announced.
