Our philosophy is to help students prepare to enter this industry with the skills needed to succeed on a creative, proactive, critical, ethical and professional level. Students will receive an education that is not only 'international' in the sense of its delivery in the context of Thailand but more importantly in the sense of being competitive with similar programmes offered world-wide. The Multimedia programme at Asian University is unique in its approach to teaching with emphasis on thinking and methodology rather than the aquisition of technology-centered skills, and is aimed at providing students with a springboard into postgraduate study in top quality postgraduate programmes offered around the world.

The courses are taught in English. All lecturers were educated at western universities; about 80 percent are native speakers of English. Beyond their academic qualification, all lecturers draw from extensive practical experience. The university has all the facilities of a modern university, including dormitorie
