 The University of Medical Sciences Council granted official
approval to establish the Faculty of Graduate Studies on March 28th, 1962
and was accepted and approved by the National Education Council on September
12th, 1962. On February 4th, 1964, the Faculty of Graduate Studies was officially
established by the Royal Decree and began student admission in the academic
year of 1962.
Since the Faculty of Graduate Studies was established when Mahidol University
was still named the University of Medical Sciences, the objectives were
mainly to train specialists in Thailand and to produce university lecturers
for Medical Schools, including those in the Faculties of Dentistry and Pharmacy.
Such objectives were primarily intended to help solve problems in the fields
of basic medical sciences; where the number of teaching staff was inadequate.
Moreover, the Faculty supported and encouraged research and studies in Medical
and Public Health Sciences.
In the early years, the Rockefeller Foundation provided teaching and learning
support for international programs in Medical Sciences, the Faculty of Science.
The international programs have always adhered to international academic
curricula and have consistently received great interest from many foreign
students who wish to study. Since 1962, the number of graduate programs
has been developed and extended to 275 programs in the six following fields:
| 1) Sciences and Technology |

2) Medical Sciences |

| 3) Public Health |

4) Social
Sciences, Humanities, and Liberal Arts |
