Chula Scores 91.62 in ITA 2025, 100 in Key Transparency Indicators for 6th Consecutive Year 

On Friday, August 15, 2025, Chulalongkorn University was recognized for its performance in the Integrity and Transparency Assessment (ITA) for the 2025 fiscal year at the ITA DAY & ITA AWARDS 2025, organized by the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) under the theme “Active for Change – Transparency, Drive, Transformation.” The event was broadcast nationwide via Facebook and YouTube. 

This year’s results reflect that “transparency is not only a standard but an organizational culture cultivated at Chula.” The university achieved a rating of “Good” with a score of 91.62 points (an increase of +2.63 points). Both the overall ITA score and individual assessment tool scores were above 85, highlighting key strengths. 

Notably, in the OIT (Open Data Integrity and Transparency Assessment), Chulalongkorn maintained a perfect score of 100 in two indicators — Indicator 9: Information Disclosure and Indicator 10: Corruption Prevention — for the sixth consecutive year. This demonstrates strong transparency in public data. In the EIT (External Integrity and Transparency Assessment), the number of respondents tripled, reflecting growing participation and confidence among external stakeholders, including undergraduate and graduate students, as well as online learners via MOOCs. 

Meanwhile, the IIT (Internal Integrity and Transparency Assessment) revealed ongoing challenges in communication and internal motivation. The university has acknowledged these and prepared proactive plans for 2026 to strengthen a culture of participation and shared accountability at all levels. 

Next Steps: Transparency as a Strategic Advantage 

For the fiscal year 2026, Chulalongkorn University will move forward by: 

• Prioritizing corruption prevention: Taking swift action in cases of staff misconduct, while communicating deterrence and promoting awareness through training programs such as Chula Newcomers, Chula Prospect Development Program, and other continuous workshops. 
• Integrating ITA with Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and EdPEx quality assurance at the faculty and departmental levels. 
• Advancing data-driven decision making to enhance accuracy in management. 
• Empowering CU-ITA Agents as “Change Agents” to drive cultural transformation, not just as survey respondents. 
• Strengthening the Whistleblower System with transparent and secure status tracking to build public confidence. 
• Promoting the AI University initiative by linking AI and Data Science expertise with university governance and stakeholder engagement. 

A University of Trust and Global Responsibility 

For Chulalongkorn University, ITA is not merely an evaluation but an opportunity to elevate its credibility as a model of transparency in Thai society and as a leading international university. Guided by the Chula Togetherness 2024–2028 Strategy, the university remains committed to advancing as a Transparent University — one that is data-driven, leads society toward sustainability, and upholds its role as a “hub of knowledge and trust” on the global stage.
