In order to strengthen the reformation of engineering education in Thailand, the faculty of engineering, Chulalongkorn University (CU) and Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT) formed CDIO Thailand since 2014. For five years, both CU and RMUTT CDIO practitioners have reached out to more than 2,000 scholars from more than 20 institutions. This paper aims to share how CU and RMUTT implemented CDIO framework into their institutions. In addition, this paper describes how CDIO Thailand supports both engineering and non-engineering educators in the process of implementing CDIO framework at a course level, program level, and institutional level. The objectives of this network are (1) to serve as a community of good practices and pedagogical competence towards the educational reform (2) to provide CDIO knowledge and guidelines for implementing CDIO, and (3) to contribute to CDIO Asian Region and CDIO Worldwide Initiatives. Furthermore, the benefits of program level CDIO implementations compared to piece-meal improvement were demonstrated, as well as the discussion of the effectiveness of the accreditation requirement in providing motivation for educational changes in Thailand.
