Held at the Dok Koon Room in the Information Center Building, the event was organized by the Professional Internship School Management and Operations Committee, led by Yupaporn Thongnoi, Assistant Director for Strategic Drive and Information Resource Management.
A panel of academic and technical experts, alongside ten library mentors, attended to evaluate the presentations and provide constructive feedback.
