Potential directions after graduation
TSU’s curriculum document mentions possible fields such as writing, translation, language-related academic work, hospitality, airline customer service, import/export, tourism and international relations.

Major options
English or professional communication?
TSU pages use slightly different labels for the program’s English and communication-focused study routes. The program overview describes “English” and “English Communication for Work”; the revised curriculum PDF identifies “English” and “English for Communication and Careers”; the June 2027 international notice says “English” and “English for Communication and Career.”
These names may reflect updated curriculum labels, but that is an inference from the pages and should not be treated as confirmed equivalence. Ask TSU-IC which exact major name and curriculum will appear in your application and degree record.

Tuition and budget
BA English fees at Thaksin University
TSU-IC lists BA English tuition at THB 25,000 per semester. The university’s revised curriculum specifies four years; eight semesters at the listed rate would equal THB 200,000 in tuition by calculation. This estimate assumes eight fee-bearing semesters and is not an official total cost. Ask TSU for the current intake’s full payment schedule and any additional fees.
TSU’s general international fee page describes average undergraduate tuition around THB 28,000 per semester, while the specific BA page lists THB 25,000. For this program, use the BA-specific rate as a guide and confirm it directly with the college.
