Act (No 3),
2499 BE

Bhumibol Adulyadej R
Given on the 27th day of December 2499 BE
Being the 11th year of the present reign

His Majesty King Maha Bhumibol Adulyadej is pleased to give a Great Royal Command that it be announced as follows:

Whereas it is appropriate to amend the law on Thammasat University;

Therefore, by and with the advice and consent of the House of Representatives, He is graciously pleased to enact the following Act:

Section1.This Act is called the Thammasat University Act (No 3), 2499 BE.

Section2.This Act shall enter into operation from the day following the day of its publication in the Royal Gazette onwards.

Section3.The disposition of 2. of section 43 of the Thammasat University Act, 2495 BE, shall be repealed and replaced by the following disposition:

“2.A person who has received this degree from the Faculty of Commerce and Accountancy shall, in the field of commerce, be called a “Bachelor of Commerce”, abbreviated as “BCom”, or, in the field of accountancy, be called a “Bachelor of Accountancy”, abbreviated as “BAcy”.”

Countersignature
Field Marshal P Phibunsongkhram
Prime Minister

Note: The grounds for promulgation of this Act are as follows: Persons who have completed education in the field of accountancy are not granted degrees but certificates of accountancy which are equivalent to bachelor’s degrees. Now that the curriculum of the Faculty of Commerce and Accountancy has been revised for promotion of the growth of the education in these fields at the levels of bachelor’s degree and master’s degree, accountancy is taught at Thammasat University in the same manner as the subjects taught at other faculties or sections in the same university, persons who have completed education in the field of accountancy should be given the title of “Bachelor of Accountancy” instead of certificates of accountancy which are already equivalent to bachelor’s degrees.
