WELCOME MESSAGE

As we take on this new school year, we renew once more our commitment to the quest of at-taining a research university status.

In this endeavor, we need to join hands in chang-ing our attitudes, in working towards excellence in all our activities—big or small—we need to re-mind ourselves that it is in unity and focus that we can achieve excellent results.

We should begin the new school year by working at improved faculty, staff and student relation-ships, at improved systems and services within the Institute and among the general community. The end result is always efficiency within, and from the ranks in support of top management in carrying out new challenges that should make the people we serve happy and satisfied.

Let’s have a fresh start. Let’s make everyone notice that our Institute is synonymous with ef-ficiency, and excellence is its middle name.

1 | INTRODUCTION

MSU.IIT | OVERVIEWThe Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) is an external unit and one of the ten campuses of the Mindanao State University Sys-tem. Established on July 12, 1968 as provided for by Republic Act (RA) 5363, the institute has continually provided quality education to thousands of students from almost everywhere in the Philippines.

These students flock to the institute every semester with one goal in mind - to study in MSU-IIT. We are humbled by the fact that these students choose and even dream to enroll in MSU-IIT. When asked why they choose this school, they strongly believe and admire our commitment to academic excellence. We envi-sion MSU-IIT as a world-class institution of higher learning renowned for its excellence in science and technology and for its commitment to the holistic de-velopment of the individual and society.

To live with our commitment, we offer our students a wide array of more than 115 academic programs, which include 43 graduate programs in a variety of fields including education, business, arts and humanities, engineering, informa-tion technology, the natural sciences, and mathematics. Our students are given opportunities to collaborate with more than 400 distinguished full-time faculty members passionate about teaching, research, extension, and community de-velopment. For these, MSU-IIT has received numerous institutional awards.

Based on the standards of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED), MSU-IIT is a Center of Excellence in Mathematics and Chemistry, Center of Development in Physics and Biology, Center of Development for Excellence in Information and Communication Technology, Center of Development in Ceramics Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Communications Engi-neering, Mechanical Engineering, and Material Science Engineering. We are the Zonal Research Center for Regions XII, IX, & ARMM.

MSU-IIT is also known as the Information and Communication Technology Learning Hub for Northern Mindanao and the Virtual Center for Technology In-novation - Microelectronics based on the standards of the Department of Sci-ence and Technology (DOST).

Many believed that we have achieved this far because of the powerful combi-nation of big-university opportunities and a friendly, small-community campus setting. We are a public, non-residential, mid-sized, comprehensive university with a special emphasis on science and technology located in downtown Iligan City, Philippines - a small, safe, and vibrant city that is a regional hub of culture and commerce. Our students not only enjoy an intensely personalized academic experience but also participate in an extensive array of extracurricular activi-ties that include more than 60 student organizations and a highly successful internationally-respected music and performing arts program. Not surprisingly, our graduates become well-rounded leaders in every field you can think of.

Students come to MSU-IIT to fulfill their dreams. They choose to stay in MSU-IIT because they know that it is the ticket to their dreams. Not just that, MSU-IIT is so inviting. Our students are delighted with the warmth of welcome they re-ceive, the ease with which they become part of this academic community, and the friendships they build here. At the end of the day, it makes us proud even more to know that our students are here because they feel at home. Indeed, it’s a home away from home.
