Group Captain Prof. Thanakorn Pheeraphan is an adjunct faculty at Department of Civil and Infrastructure Engineering at the Asian Institute of Technology since 1999 where he has taught and continued working on research in the area of mortar and concrete technology with graduate students. He is also a deputy director of graduate school and Professor of Civil Engineering at Navaminda Kasatriyadhiraj Royal Air Force Academy (NKRAFA).

  1. Ph.D. in Department of Civil and Environmental engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA,1997
  2. Master of Science in Civil Engineering in Department of Civil and Environmental engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA, 1993
  3. Bachelor of Science (Distinguished) in Civil Engineering, Virginia Military Institute (VMI), USA, 1991
  4. Director Certification Program, DCP 201/2015, Thai Institute of Directors (IOD), 2015
  5. Corporate Governance for Directors and Senior Executives of Regulator, State Enterprises and Public Organizations (PDI Class 18), 2018

His research focuses on preplaced concrete aggregate, design and inspection of airfield pavement, development of repairing material and special concrete, development of special mortar products for commercial application, and design and testing of protective structures for military applications.  Recently, his interest has been in the area of supporting the pathway of Net Zero Cement and Concrete Roadmap for Thailand.
