On July 20, 2025, the Student Government Organization of King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), in collaboration with various university departments, hosted the orientation event “KMUTT First Date 2025” to warmly welcome incoming students. The event introduced freshmen to the university’s structure, services, and support systems, while fostering connections among peers and senior students in a friendly, inclusive atmosphere. More than just a welcome event, the program strongly reflected KMUTT’s dedication to sustainability.

Participants were encouraged to bring their own reusable water containers and avoid single-use foam or plastic food containers, opting instead for reusable tableware to help reduce waste from the event. In addition, a volunteer waste management team was stationed at various waste disposal points throughout the venue to guide new students on proper waste separation and disposal practices. This initiative aimed to promote environmental awareness and responsible behavior from the very first day of university life. Through such actions, KMUTT continues to cultivate students as Change Agents with Green Hearts—young leaders empowered to drive sustainable transformation across campus and beyond.
