Sasin Graduate Institute of Business Administration of Chulalongkorn University
The Graduate Institute of Business Administration was established in 1982 by Chulalongkorn University, in collaboration with two of the world's foremost business schools—the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania - - to meet the need of the business community for qualified managers. The established institute, bestowed the name of Sasin Graduate Institute of Business Administration of Chulalongkorn University by H.M. King Bhumibol Adulyadej, has been sharpening minds and shaping leaders in Thailand since then.

Sasin pioneered the use of visiting professors from the top business schools in the world, complemented by full-time faculty and other experts, to conduct its English language graduate management programs in Thailand. The institute was conceived as an educational institution offering life-long business and management education at an international level. Sasin was Thailand's first business school to be accredited not only by AACSB, but also by EQUIS, the world's two most demanding accreditation bodies.
