This study investigated faculty perceptions toward critical thinking among students in Thai universities and how this might influence how they teach, and they might instill this form of thinking in their students. The data source was semi-structured interviews with six faculty from the Educational Psychology and Guidance fields in Thai universities via Line and Facebook application. It has been found that faculty perceived that critical thinking helps students in their decision in daily life problem appropriately. Even though teachers perceived that they are encouraging their students to think critically in the classrooms, they are only concerned with comprehending the subject matters. Detailed discussions regarding the perceptions of faculty on students’ critical thinking are provided.
