Welcome to RafflesDesignInstitute - Bangkok, Thailand


     In many ways major universities have many more similarities than differences. Yet Raffles Design Institute, the very first international design school in Thailand, has uniqueness in providing programs that are consistent in Design.

     Raffles Design Institute's liberal education is an education whose goal is more than professional mastery or technical capacity or commercial advantage, but the commencement of a life-long pleasure in the human exercise of our minds, our most human part. It is an education whose spirit is designed to remind us that education is life - long and will be the means, far more than a job career, to forge those links with family, friends, community and country that will allow each to sustain the other.

     Raffles Design Institute is committed to artistic innovation and intellectual rigor. The school's programs emphasize critical thinking about art and design in terms of context and use, and strongly encourage work that challenges established ideas. Our students explore the creative aspects of design with a balance of technological and theoretical approaches, using the latest equipment and technology in our computer facilities. Within our course, faculty and students form an inquisitive and dynamic educational community in which creativity, critical thinking, innovative problem solving, aesthetic understanding, cross-disciplinary study and professionalism are explored, cultivated and promoted.

     The school, recognized as an innovator in Singapore since 1990 and now the school has proven its qualities in Thailand. Raffles Design Institute's perspective is global, as reflected in the international make-up and diversity of the entire community. It is a meeting place for multinational interests. Our students come from various background and nationalities. We recognize that a high level of diversity necessitates a flexible and practical approach to learning. Our flexible schedule enables students to expedite their academic progress and also can help working professionals to complete their education without interrupting their career. We offer small classes and focus on providing individual attention.
