Since the current quality framework, called Thailand Qualification Frameworks for Higher Education (TQF-HEd), has been enforced in the past years by the Office of the Higher Education Commission (OHEC), the quality of the graduates produced and the quality of teaching Public Administration particularly graduate study seems to be in the opposite directions. This paper investigates the quality of higher education in Public Administration at Master level in Thailand. Data such as curriculums, program philosophy, etc. were collected from universities offering graduate study in Public Administration. In-depth interviews were conducted from public and private universities.
