Sripatum University or SPU (Thai: มหาวิทยาลัยศรีปทุม) is a medium size private university in the north of Bangkok, Thailand.
Inspired by the vision of Dr. Sook Pookayaporn , who wanted to give Thai youths the chance to develop their full potential, Sripatum University (SPU) was founded in May 28, 1970 under the name Thai Suriya College.
The college later was promoted to university status. The name Sripatum means the "Source of Knowledge Blooming Like a Lotus" and was gratiously conferred on the college by the Her Royal Highness the late Princess Mother Srinagarindra (Somdet Phra Srinagarindra Baromarajajanan) who also presided over the official opening ceremony of SPU and awarded vocational certificates to the first three graduating classes. Sripatum University is therefore one of the first five private universities of Thailand.
