【Abstract|講題摘要】
The number of schools and universities implementing English as a Medium of Instruction (#EMI) in Thailand has increased significantly since 1990. In addition to the goal of internationalization and globalization, the adoption of EMI in education is driven by a desire to enhance career and educational opportunities, as well as to improve language proficiency. Despite the widespread adoption of EMI in Thai education, several reports highlight its effectiveness and challenges persist.

These include concerns regarding language proficiency levels, pedagogical approaches, teacher qualifications, and cultural considerations. In this presentation. I will elaborate on the history of EMI education in Thailand, rationale, and current implementation. Challenges faced by policy makers, educators and learners will also be highlighted. The possible solutions include providing more support for both the teachers and students and implementing the language curriculum.
