The Faculty of Environmental Culture and Ecotourism (ECE) was established on 6th May, 2011 by the University Council of Srinakharinwirot University in order to provide academic teaching and researches, particularly focusing on two major disciplines: Environmental Technology and Resources, and Integrated Tourism Management.

Our programs offer both social science and natural science aspects ranging from undergraduate to graduate levels. Currently, the Faculty has organized three programs from two different majors of study: environment and tourism. The programs in the major of environment comprise one undergraduate program, and one graduate program. The tourism major has one undergraduate program, and one graduate program which will be open in academic year 2019.

The faculty members and students of our programs have strongly believed that multi-disciplinary learning is a core concept of the two majors. The undergraduate program of the environment major in Environmental Technology and Resources provides courses of integral understanding in environmental science, environmental resources, and technological tools for planning and creating an innovative knowledge to conserve natural resources and the environment. Furthermore, the graduate program in Environmental Technology and Resource management provides advantaged courses to students in a core concept of connecting environmental science with community-based management in a practical way, emphasizing on human well-being, natural resource conservation, and pollution reduction in both urban and rural areas.

At present, the undergraduate program of the tourism major in Integrated Tourism Management provides students practicebased learning courses which address a variety of technical support for sustainable tourism management. The program allows students to participate in field trips across the country and provides them a tour guide certificate after completing all required courses. Moreover, the graduate program in Tourism and Hospitality Management Innovation provides students learning courses about the business on how to effectively plan good tours. Other areas of study have been covered, including leisure management, cultural tourism, event leadership, sustainable tourism and marketing strategies.
