Congratulations Jumpon!

Jumpon shares a joke with University Vice President Panit, at the end of 2008 Summer University.

In 2009, Jumpon Kluaymai-ngarm was awarded the Erasmus Mundus scholarship by the European Commission and now has an MA Economics in International Trade and European Integration (with Distinction). The course was organized by a consortium of seven European universities:

Universiteit Antwerpen, Belgium (University of Antwerp)

Università degli Studi di Bari (UB), Italy (University of Bari)

Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium (Free University of Brussels)

Universidad de Cantabria, Spain (University of Cantabria)

Université des Sciences et Technologies de Lille, France (University of Science and Technology of Lille)

Vysoká škola ekonomická v Praze, Czech Republic (Prague University of Economics)

Staffordshire University, United Kingdom

Jumpon told me, “All the partners contribute one way or another to the programme. However, I was only in three campuses. The first trimester from September to early December was the choice between Lille and Stoke-on-Trent - of course, a French-phobia like me requested to go to England. Then we all moved to Antwerp for the second term from January to early April. Finally, we concluded in Prague starting from after the Easter break to end of June.”

Jumpon received a BBA (First-class Honors), majoring in Business Economics from Asian University in 2005. He also holds a Post-graduate Certificate in Economics for Business Analysis from Staffordshire University, UK. Currently, he is an Instructor in the Faculty of Business.

As a continuation of the programme of Visiting Artists, on 4 December, the students and staff at Asian university were delighted to welcome two special, and very different, artists.

Samples of Khun Korkaew's lomography

In the afternoon, Khun Korkaew Korwatana described her work as a lomographer. She explained that she has been exploring the world of lomography and plastic toy cameras for four years. The cameras often produce unexpected results, maybe the light leaked in, or the film was old and produced strange colours, or some other happy accident. Strictly analogue, this branch of creative and experimental photography is increasing in popularity. spoke to the students and staff with enthusiasm for her subject and showed many examples of her work. The multi-media students were particularly interested and took the opportunity to ask questions of Khun Korkaew.
