King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok
colloquially known as Phra Nakhon Nuea is a public technology university in
Thailand.
KMUTNB was jointly founded by the Royal Thai Government and the Federal
Republic of Germany as the North Bangkok Technical School in 1959;
colloquially known as Thai-German Technical School. In 1964, the school was
upgraded to "Thai-German Technical College" before becoming King Mongkut's
Institute of Technology North Bangkok Campus in 1971. Later in 1986, King
Mongkut's Institute of Technology separated into three autonomous
universities and the North Bangkok campus became King Mongkut's Institute of
Technology North Bangkok. In 1995, KMUTNB extended its educational
obligations to the rural areas, leading to the creation of the Prachinburi
campus in Prachinburi province. Later in 2007, King Mongkut's Institute of
Technology North Bangkok was renamed "King Mongkut's University of
Technology North Bangkok " and became an autonomous state university.
