On 23 September 2026, the Office of Atoms for Peace (OAP), under the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI), welcomed 20 faculty members and students from the Faculty of Science, Kasetsart University, for a study visit to the Nuclear and Radiological Emergency Operations Center (NREOC).
The visit aimed to introduce participants to OAP’s roles and responsibilities in monitoring, preparedness, and response to nuclear and radiological emergencies, as well as its regulatory functions in nuclear and radiation safety.
During the visit, faculty members and students attended a briefing on the operations of the NREOC and toured relevant operational facilities. The experience provided valuable insights into the real-world work of Thailand’s nuclear and radiation regulatory authority, bridging classroom knowledge with practical applications and highlighting the importance of monitoring systems and emergency preparedness in protecting the public and the environment.
