Internships & Careers

Students in the Bachelor of Arts in Public Policy, Global Affairs, and Society (PGS) Program gain valuable professional experience through a wide range of internship opportunities across the public, private, and international sectors. The program’s interdisciplinary curriculum equips students with analytical, policy, and global competencies that are highly valued by government agencies, diplomatic missions, international organizations, media, and leading corporations.

PGS students have undertaken internships with prominent organizations in Thailand, including government ministries, embassies, state agencies, media outlets, and major corporations such as policy institutions, logistics firms, energy companies, and public-facing organizations. Opportunities also extend internationally, with placements at Royal Thai embassies and consulates across Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America.

These internships allow students to apply classroom knowledge to real-world challenges, develop professional networks, and explore career pathways in diplomacy, public policy, international affairs, business, and social development. Through hands-on experience, students graduate with both academic excellence and practical skills, preparing them for impactful careers in an increasingly interconnected world.

Graduates of the PGS Program are equipped with a strong interdisciplinary foundation that enables them to pursue diverse academic and professional pathways. Many students choose to continue their studies at leading universities around the world in fields such as international relations, public policy, global business, and development studies. The program’s emphasis on analytical thinking, global awareness, and critical engagement with contemporary issues provides a solid preparation for advanced study in both academic and professional contexts.

In addition to further studies, PGS graduates are well-positioned for careers across the public sector, private sector, and entrepreneurial pathways. Opportunities include roles in government agencies such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as positions in policy-oriented organizations and leading think tanks, including institutions such as the Thailand Development Research Institute (TDRI). Graduates may also pursue careers in multinational corporations, international organizations, and consulting, or engage in self-employment and entrepreneurial ventures that require a global outlook and strategic thinking. With its focus on global perspectives and practical skills, the program prepares students to contribute meaningfully to policy analysis, international cooperation, and a wide range of professions in an increasingly interconnected world.
