What CICC stands for : Chula International Communications Center (CIC)
Direct to : Chulalongkorn University Communication Center
Chula International Communications (CIC), formerly known as Chula International Communication Center (CICC), was established in 2008 during the office of Professor Pirom Kamolratanakul, M.D., as President of Chulalongkorn University. An objective of the establishment of CIC is to follow the university’s ‘Progress’ strategy to become a world-class university with high academic quality and standards accredited among the international stage.
Key Principles in the Establishment of CIC
Chula International Communications (CIC) is established as a central unit in charge of the administration and management of advanced communication system. Aside from Chulalongkorn University’s focus on its public image, the founding of CIC is also in alignment with the university’s mission to become one of the world’s leading universities with academic standards accredited by international institutions.
With parliamentary permission and His Majesty the King’s endorsement of the Chulalongkorn University Act, it is a timely occasion for the university to accomplish a scheme to reposition its public image through conveying a message that Chulalongkorn University is a long-established educational institute with academics and high-performance personnel that are willing to fulfill the university’s mission and to serve the Thai society.
Objectives
1. To develop an operation plan of CIC, which is a central department responsible for the management of advanced communication system. To provide a “brain bank” serving as a shared database and an online press room with a search-engine function. This is to accommodate CU members including its personnel, lecturers and students as well as public with a fast and easy-to-access news.
2. To update the university’s latest news and activities.
3. To communicate with members of the university as well as local and international audiences about the new image of Chulalongkorn University.
