The results showed the future studies in accordance with Thailand’s Higher Education Standards of 2018 as follows: (1) build people for the future; (2) create highimpact research; (3) build a society by connecting HEI, cities, private agencies, and communities; (4) create value-added for the city with local arts and culture; and (5) flexible management based on sustainability with good governance.
