The Sasin School of Management (also known as the Sasin Graduate Institute of Business Administration of Chulalongkorn University) was established in collaboration with Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and The University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School in 1982.
It was the first Asian school to cultivate fruitful links with top business schools in the United States.
His Majesty the King of Thailand, Bhumibol Adulyadej gave it its name in 1987, which comes from two Sanskrit words - "sasa" meaning rabbit to represent the king’s birth year and "indra" meaning chief. ‘Sasin’ literally means “king of the rabbits”.
It offers flexible MBAs, executive MBAs, a dual MBA and Masters of Engineering and several degrees in executive education.
It became the first school in Thailand to receive AACSB accreditation in 2010 and the first to receive EQUIS/EFMD accreditation in 2011.
Sasin School of Management has produced a number of business leaders, which include Douglas Clayton, founder and CEO of Leopard Capital, Sudarat Keyuraphan, chairperson of the Lumbini Development Project and Kittiratt Na-Ranong, former Deputy Prime Minister of Thailand.
Part of Chulalongkom University (Thailand’s oldest and most prestigious academic institution), Sasin is located in Bangkok, in a peaceful, park-like setting. It is also home to the Institute for Global Affairs, which is dedicated to policy innovation to strengthen Thailand and its relationship with the rest of the world.
The Sasin Japan Center (SJC) offers business management consulting for Japanese companies in Thailand. It also offers management training, management seminars, and market research.
