The Institute for Fundamental Study “The Tah Poe Academia Institute” is a research institute in theoretical physics established as the 21st Faculty of Nareruan University. Its research concerns Cosmology, Classical Gravity, Quantum Field Theory, Quantum Gravity, String Theory, Applied Quantum Physics and Physics of Social and Economics Systems. At present IF offers academic programs:
•Ph.D. (Theoretical Physics) (with S.TP.)
•M.S. (Theoretical Physics) (with M.TP.)
•Grad.TP. (open for B.S. students of University of Phayao)
and short courses in Thai with certified qualifications:
•TP.C. (Quantum Mechanics)
•TP.C. (Theoretical Structure of Elementary Physics)
•TP.C. (In-Resident Visiting Student)
academic programs. Despite establishment in 2011, its history dates back to 1994. All academic activities and publications of the antecedent TPTP have been subsumed under IF, including the Tah Poe Seminar Series (since 2003), TPTP Physics Station (since 2006), a weekly Cosmology Journal Club since 2013, Technical Talks since April 2015 and reading groups on several books and topics. The PPP program moved to run at University of Phayao from 2016. Research situated at IF are three laboratories:
•Laboratory of Cosmology and Gravity (CGL) of the Thailand Center of Excellence in Physics
•Integrability, Field Theories and High Energy Physics (IFTHEP).
•Quantum Information Science (QIS)
