Program Description, Achievement and Accreditation status

Achievements and Accreditation Status

In February 2020, Engr. Edrian Laki, one of the graduates of BSME Program got the Top 2 place in the Mechanical EnginMEring Licensure Examination. Also, Engr. Rjayson Catacutan topped the same licensure examinations in September 2006.

°ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ got the Top 5 and Top 8 for Top Performing School in Mechanical EnginMEring Licensure Examinations for years 2017 and 2016 respectively.

According to , °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ is Top 18 Top Performing Mechanical EnginMEring School in the Philippines out of the 206 higher education institutions from 2014 to 2018.

In April 1995, the ME Program, along with the other programs attained Federation of Accrediting Agencies of the Philippines (FAAP) second level (II) accreditation status through PAASCU.

For school year 1998-199, PAASCU Level II re-accreditation was attained. In 2003, CHED elevated °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ to autonomous status was renewed ever since.

In 2019, °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ has been granted an ISO 9001:2015 certification for both academic programs and support service from basic education to higher education programs.

PLOS, ISLOS AND PEOS

Integrated Institutional Student Learning Outcomes (ISLOs) in Mechanical Engineering

The 7 proficiencies instituted by the University serve as the bases in establishing the BS Mechanical Engineering Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) and Program Outcomes (POs). The Institutional Student Learning Outcomes (ISLOs) are aligned to these set of objectives and provide direction in the deployment of the Mechanical Engineering program. They are:

  • Communication – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to exhibit the ability to listen, write, understand, speak, and express his/her concepts, ideas, in person and other media, coherently and successfully, to everyone. He / She should be able to master his/her communication skills as this will make him/her ideally suited for future career and leadership positions.
  • Valuing and Ethical Reasoning – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to determine the diverse value systems, demonstrate a strong moral compass, exhibit resiliency, and uphold and defend ethical judgments.
  • Critical and Creative Thinking – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to demonstrate and master critical and creative skills by integrating ideas concepts and synthesizing them. He / She must also create multiple possible solutions to a prompt, rather than a single exact solution to an architectural design or engineering problem.
  • Civic and Global Learning – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to determine the different civic issues and partake in various community services that would promote the furtherance of the quality of life for those in need.
  • Applied and Collaborative Learning – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to understand and relate Mechanical engineering to the different multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural fields of the practice. He / She must be able to work with a team, understand the perspectives of other people, arbitrate differences, and help reach conclusions as a group.
  • Aesthetic Engagement – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to exhibit and master the aptitude on how to integrate various forms of arts in Mechanical engineering that would encourage creation of design with aesthetic elegance. He / She must further show how art forms can be translated and communicated in the design of built environments considering the various aspects and context in Mechanical engineering designs.
  • ICT Literacy – A Mechanical engineering student must be able to demonstrate the ability to use tools of information and communication technology that will help him/her communicate his/her architectural design ideas effectively and ethically.


Mechanical Engineering Educational Objectives (PEOs)

Course Outline

Philippine Society of Mechanical Engineers - °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ Junior Unit

The Philippine Society of Mechanical Engineers has been living up to its role in the advancement of the knowledge of its members in the profession. Established in the year 1952 with the objective of uniting the mechanical engineers towards professional growth, PSME started broadening its aims by acknowledging about 76 Junior Units all over the country on the year 1996 during the term of Engr. Gerardo Hernandez.

Within such motion arose the now more than 50 years PSME °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ Junior Unit. Adopting the moniker "Prime Movers", the Philippine Society of Mechanical Engineers °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ Junior Unit has always been committed in pursuing its goals of producing the ultimate initiators of innovation and development of the country in the future.
