Phranakhon Rajabhat University<\/strong> was Thailand\u2019s first teachers\u2019 training school, founded by King Chulalongkorn (King Rama the Fifth) of the present Chakri Dynasty. It was officially opened on October 12, 1892, with the primary goal of producing teachers for primary schools. Eleven years later, the curriculum expanded in response to the demand for secondary school teachers. As the college flourished, it spread to many locations and underwent many name- changes. Finally, in 1956, the then Phranakhon Teachers\u2019College was moved to the present location, on Changwattana Road, Bangkhen District, Bangkok.<\/p>\n

Not until 1974 was the degree program approved by the Ministry of Education, initially only in the field of education. A year later marked further major changes. Phranakhon Teachers\u2019 College and five other teachers\u2019 colleges in the Bangkok Metropolis agreed to cooperate in educational development and policy-planning and shared the common name of \u201cRattanakosin United College.\u201d In the following year, Phranakhon underwent further expansion and offered associate degree as well as Bachelor\u2019s degrees in arts and science, in addition to the existing Bachelor of Education degrees.<\/p>\n

The year 1992 marked the Centennial Anniversary for Phranakhon Teachers\u2019 College. His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej, the present King Rama the Tenth, graciously bestowed the name \u201cRajabhat,\u201d meaning the \u201cman of the King, servant of the motherland.\u201d Therefore, from\u00a0 12 October of that year on, Phranakhon was known as \u201cRajabhat Institute Phranakhon.\u201d In addition, His Majesty granted permission to use his Royal Emblem as the symbol of the institute.
\nOn June 15, 2004, Rajabhat Institute Phranakhon underwent another major change. Under the Rajabhat University Act B.E. 2547(2004), the institute became Phranakhon Rajabhat University, \u201cA Thai university for academic freedom of the people.\u201d<\/p>\n
