College of Engineering(CENG)
Brief History
Brief
History Republic Act No. 5521, approved on June 21, 1969, gave Bicol
University corporate existence. Although the law took effect upon its
approval, the formal organization and establishment was on September 22,
1970, by virtue of Resolution No. 1 of the Board of Regents. Section 2
of the aforementioned law provides for the conversion of the Bicol
Regional School of Arts and Trades of Legazpi City into the College of
Engineering and School of Arts and Trades. It officially started
operations in 1970 with two programs offered, the BS in Civil
Engineering and the BS in Mechanical Engineering. In 1976, the College
offered BS in Electrical Engineering. Two years later, it offered BS in
Architecture. By virtue of Board Resolution No.41, series 1995 approved
in December 22, 1995, the College of Engineering was separated from the
School of Arts and Trades, the latter becoming the College of Industrial
Technology. In June 2000 the College offered BS in Chemical Engineering
and BS in Geothermal Engineering. In 2008, the BS Mining Engineering
has been offered. Likewise, the Diploma in Architecture had its first
ten enrollees during the SY 2008-2009 while the Diploma in Energy
Technology , approved in 2008 by the Board of Regents, has yet to be
opened for enrollment. The Master of Science in Architecture was later
offered in 2010. Since 1974, when its pioneer graduates topped the board
examinations, up to the present, the College had produced more than a
hundred board placers in various licensure examination in engineering
and architecture.
