On Sunday, 22 February 2026, at the Pissit-Netchaleo Sanpitak Meeting Room on the 8th floor of the Faculty of Associated Medical Sciences, Khon Kaen University organised a White Coat Ceremony for second-year students to proudly and confidently step onto their professional path. The opening ceremony was honoured by Associate Professor Dr. Jurairat Dadduang, Dean of the Faculty of Associated Medical Sciences, who officially opened the event and delivered an address to the students.

This ceremony was held to present the white coats, signifying entry into the profession, with the objectives of fostering pride and awareness of the importance of professional roles among students, encouraging students to recognize their responsibilities, virtues, ethics, and professional conduct, and promoting relationships and engagement between parents and the Faculty of Associated Medical Sciences. 

Associate Professor Dr. Jurairat Dadduang, Dean of the Faculty of Associated Medical Sciences, stated that the “white coat” is not just a uniform but a symbol of knowledge, responsibility, and ethics in the healthcare profession. It reflects a commitment to professional integrity and ethical practice. This event marks another significant milestone for second-year students as they embark on new roles as “prospective professionals,” ready to progress along their professional path with a strong sense of responsibility.

Meanwhile, an activity for parents of 2nd-year students to meet and exchange perspectives with the executive committee was held at the 42-Year Meeting Room on the 1st floor, aimed at strengthening mutual understanding and collaboration in supporting students throughout their educational journey.

The atmosphere was filled with warmth, pride, and smiles from students, faculty members, executives, parents, and all personnel. They collectively captured memorable moments in front of the Faculty of Associated Medical Sciences building.
