Partner highlight: Mahidol Â鶹´«Ã½ Thailand
Mahidol Â鶹´«Ã½ is one of Sussex’s strongest partners in South East Asia. Our partnership includes dual degrees in Life Sciences.
.
Students from Mahidol have also participated in our International Junior Research Associate Scheme, with support from the Global partnerships over several years from 2016.
Collectively we run the Sussex-Mahidol Migration Partnership (SMMP), a collaboration led by SCMR at Sussex and the Mahidol Migration Centre in the Institute for Population and Social Research at Mahidol Â鶹´«Ã½.
The SMMP has also widened its research network, developing the Europe-Asia Migration Network by the end of 2015 to collaborate with partners such as The Peace Research Institute Oslo, The Asia Research Institute at the National Â鶹´«Ã½ of Singapore, Humboldt Â鶹´«Ã½ and the Chinese Â鶹´«Ã½ of Hong Kong. The partnership also established a link with the Myanmar Migration Network in Bangkok, an NGO where Sussex students have also had placements.
Demonstrating the unique, ongoing and highly successful extent of the Sussex-Mahidol partnership and wider research network, members of the SMMP are currently part of an interdisciplinary collaborative research project between the UK and Thailand awarded a prestigious Natural Environment Research Council grant worth £450,000 in October 2018.
