This campus occupies the area of 199 rai (32 hectares) in Si Racha District of Chon Buri Province at the distance of approximately 107 kilometers to the east of Bangkok. It was originally an agricultural research station of the university since 1954. Its establishment as a campus took place in 1989 and the first year bachelor students started in 1996. This campus was dictated by the pressing of the country shortage of high quality manpower as a consequence of the Eastern Seaboard Development Project.
