The agreement will facilitate the movement of doctoral students and faculty for research collaboration and internships, initially in the area of mathematics and statistics.
Brock faculty are already involved in hosting and co-supervising PhD students from Thammasat.
Other areas of focus for the partnership are expected to be developed in the next few years.
All visiting students will be able to participate under the formal University Mentorship program administered by Brock International Services. That participation is subject to the availability of a suitable host faculty member at Brock.
Students from both universities may also participate in undergraduate student exchange through ISEP, a consortia student exchange program through which both institutions are members. That exchange is subject to availability of suitable courses.
