A campus where research
meets highland life.

14,000 rai of teaching, residential, recreation, and conservation grounds wrapped around the foothills of Doi Suthep — built for students who want their learning grounded in place.

Campus highlights

Six things that make CMU different.

Living next to a national park

The Suthep campus borders Doi Suthep–Pui National Park, with weekend hiking and birdwatching minutes from the dorms.

A city of food and craft

Chiang Mai’s old city, Sunday Walking Street, and night markets are a 15-minute songthaew ride from campus.

160+ student clubs

From Lanna music ensemble to robotics, debate, and outdoor adventure societies.

Sustainable mobility

Free electric campus shuttles, bike share, and shaded walking spines connect every faculty.

A residential learning community

On-campus dormitories, mentor-led residential colleges, and dining halls open across the year.

Sport and wellness

A 50m Olympic pool, running track, multi-sport gym, and martial arts dojo open to all students.

Housing

Three ways to live on campus.

Residential colleges

Mentor-led colleges that pair undergraduates with senior students, faculty fellows, and shared dining halls.

Graduate housing

Studio and one-bedroom apartments dedicated to master’s, PhD, and visiting researchers.
