Monchai Kooakachai
Assistant Professor
Biography
I earned my PhD in Applied Mathematics with a concentration in Statistics and have been part of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Chulalongkorn University since November 2019. My roles consistently combine significant research and teaching responsibilities. I genuinely enjoy working with and mentoring students, and I believe the best way to support their learning is by engaging in meaningful research that enriches and contextualizes my teaching. As a result, I place strong emphasis on both my research and instructional contributions. I also maintain a solid record of service and leadership to my department, the university, and the broader scientific community.
