Engineering and Science Classroom (ESC)
“Incubating new-generation leaders, strengthening critical thinking and analytical abilities, broadening the mind — through story-based learning” Engineering and Science Classroom (ESC) is a high-school science classroom under the supervision of KMUTT and the Ministry of Science and Technology. The academic staff, audio-visual equipment, and space for conducting ESC activities are sponsored by KMUTT faculties and internal divisions. The ESC program is centered on the key concepts of ‘story-based learning’, namely, student-focused and hands-on approaches. Story-based learning combines interdisciplinary narratives drawn from science and technology, social sciences, arts and humanities. This narrative-driven technique is adopted in the classroom to facilitate students' comprehension and the ability to draw a connection and appropriately apply the knowledge to solve academic and real-world problems. ESC strives to foster distinguished students who excel in STEM subjects, with the goal of shaping them into scientifically-minded thinkers and inventors. Our ESC students will emerge as future leaders in the scientific fields, and in doing so, they will play a significant role in advancing the nation. The ESC program...
