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.”

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The history of the genesis or the old mythology repeats itself in the experience of every child. He too is a demon or god thrown into a particular chaos, where he strives ever to lead things from disorder into order.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It may be well to remember that the highest level of moral aspiration recorded in history was reached by a few ancient Jews—Micah, Isaiah, and the rest—who took no count whatever of what might not happen to them after death. It is not obvious to me why the same point should not by and by be reached by the Gentiles.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
