Contributions to this fund will ensure Cal students can continue taking advantage of our exceptional instruction in the Thai language. Your donation today will directly support the hiring of two instructors and will enable the department to offer two sections of Intermediate Thai and one section of Advanced Thai. Students who started learning Thai in the 2020-21 academic year can continue their studies without a delay in instruction. The department won't have the funding needed to offer these courses next year without your help.
About Thai Study at UC Berkeley:
It is in this environment students experience the thrill of mastering Thai and acquiring tools to delve deeper into many facets of Thailand’s rich culture and history. Thai language instruction plays a critical role for Cal students of Thai heritage. These students acquire a deeper understanding of their identity, develop the ability to connect across generations, and complete their degrees with skills and knowledge to better serve the community.
