Founded in 1919, Songkhla Rajabhat University is one of the oldest higher education institutions in southern Thailand.

In 1961 it became Songkhla Teacher College and in 1981 it was renamed Songkhla Community College. The college attained university status under its current name in 1992.
There are seven faculties within the university: faculty of education, faculty of agricultural technology, faculty of humanities and social sciences, faculty of management science, faculty of science and technology, faculty of fine arts, and the faculty of industrial technology. Each faculty is divided into different departments which offer both undergraduate and graduate degree programmes.
