History
Founded in 1959, under co-operation between the Royal Thai Government and the Federal Republic of Germany, KMUTNB was established as the “Thai-German Technical School”.
In 1964, the school was upgraded to “Thai-German Technical College”.
In 1971, Thai-German Technical College joined with Thonburi Technical College and Telecommunication College Nonthaburi to become the North Bangkok campus of “King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology.”
In 1986, King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology separated into three autonomous universities:
- King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang
- King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Thonburi
- King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology North Bangkok
In 1995, KMITNB acquired land in Prachinburi Province to establish a new campus, “KMITNB Prachinburi.”
