On behalf of the Dean and all faculty members of the Princess Agrarajakumari Faculty of Nursing, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, it’s with immense pleasure we extend a warm welcome to all our new students. We truly admire your success in passing our rigorous selection exam, marking a significant milestone in your academic journey. Over the next four years, you’ll embark on a transformative path, dedicating yourselves to the challenging yet immensely rewarding professions of nursing and midwifery—the path you’ve chosen.

The Princess Agrarajakumari Faculty of Nursing was established in 2016. This was a direct result of the unwavering royal commitment of Professor Dr. Her Royal Highness Princess Chulabhorn Krom Phra Srisavangavadhana, who sought to uphold the aspirations of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej The Great (Rama IX) and Her Royal Highness Princess Srinagarindra, to alleviate suffering and enhance public well-being, especially in health. Her Royal Highness initiated the expansion of Chulabhorn Hospital and the urgent establishment of the Faculties of Medicine and Nursing to support its operations.

The Princess Agrarajakumari Faculty of Nursing aims to produce high-quality nursing graduates with a professional spirit, comprehensive knowledge, and a service mind, valuing human dignity and prioritizing the collective good. Our learning experience integrates both theoretical and practical components, emphasizing a student-centered approach to foster systematic scientific thinking and critical judgment. You’ll engage in self-directed learning and practical training to continuously develop your competencies.

University education differs significantly from high school. It demands a greater level of maturity, responsibility, and independent study. The more you explore beyond classroom instruction, the more profoundly you’ll learn. Therefore, discipline in both your studies and daily life is crucial for success. The Faculty provides dedicated academic advisors, ready to listen and work with you to find solutions for any challenges, academic or personal.

Finally, on behalf of myself and the faculty members, I wish all new students success in your studies and personal lives. May you enjoy good health, overcome any obstacles, and develop the analytical skills to find correct and sustainable solutions. We sincerely hope this student handbook will be a valuable guide, helping you successfully complete the program.
