The Summer 2012 BIOCEP program in Thailand has been cancelled. The BIOCEP program in India will be offered.
Dates for the Spring 2012 Quarter have been changed to 21 May - 21 August.
Students who are interested in studying in Thailand for Summer 2012 can select courses from the Spring 2012 Quarter offerings.

Professional internships are available in business, marketing, finance, international relations, media, tourism, hospitality, environment, medicine, health administration and humanitarian aid.
Students are placed in local and international companies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), schools and humanitarian aid organizations.
Medical and health administration internships are arranged at Mahidol University hospitals.
Internships require a minimum commitment of 120 hours (3 credits), term paper and regular meetings with an internship supervisor.
Students can also participate in community service at humanitarian organizations, schools, orphanages and other organizations.
Community service does not require a minimum commitment; schedules are more flexible than for internships.
There is no credit for community service. Students who need academic credit should consider the internship option.
