National Institute of Development Administration (NIDA; Thai: สถาบันบัณฑิตพัฒนบริหารศาสตร์) is a public graduate university in Thailand under the Commission on Higher Education, the Ministry of Education.[1][2][3]
NIDA has 10 graduate schools aimed to serve economics and social development.

History of the Institute
NIDA was founded on April 1, 1966 with initial assistance from the Department of Technical and Economic Cooperation, the Ford Foundation, and the Midwest Universities Consortium for International Activities (MUCIA).[5]
At the beginning, NIDA was an autonomous institute affiliated with Thammasat University which ran its own activities and managed its own budget. Later on, a merging of the School of Public Administration from Thammasat University, part of the training work from the National Economic and Social Development Board, and part of the training and teaching work from the National Statistical Office, became a full university as Thailand’s leading educational institution concentrating exclusively on graduate studies in fields related to national development.
NIDA is one of the three leading institutions in Thailand, namely Chulalongkorn University, Thammasat University and The National Institute of Development Administration (NIDA), for the Joint Doctoral Program in Business Administration (JDBA) with funding from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) through the Association of Deans of South East Asian Graduate Schools of Management (ADSGM).[6]
