The programme is part of an ongoing academic collaboration between COPA KKU and the University of Baguio. Both institutions have partnered on a range of exchange activities, including inbound and outbound student exchanges, short-term programmes, international internships, and cooperative education. These initiatives are designed to provide students with practical learning opportunities in a global context while equipping them with essential skills for the modern international workforce.

Over the course of the programme, the visiting students will engage in a variety of academic activities focusing on public affairs and public policy. They will safely exchange knowledge and experiences with the faculty members and students of COPA KKU. In addition to academic pursuits, the students will learn about Thai lifestyle, culture, and identity through specially curated activities aimed at promoting intercultural understanding and establishing international networks.

COPA KKU believes that educational exchange goes far beyond conventional classroom learning. It is a developmental process that instils an international vision in students, equipping them to understand cultural diversity and collaborate with individuals from various nations. This approach aims to mould students into global citizens and future public leaders who are prepared to create meaningful value for society.

The partnership between COPA KKU and the University of Baguio reflects a shared institutional commitment to strengthening education in public affairs and policy through international cooperation. By exchanging knowledge, developing student potential, and building a strong academic network within the ASEAN region, the initiative supports Khon Kaen University’s broader mission of internationalisation. The College welcomes the visiting students, wishing them a rewarding experience, lasting friendships, and the inspiration to contribute to society on a global scale.
