Throughout its history, UP played a leading role in responding to the needs of the nation, stressing academic excellence and quality learning. This role finds expression in the University’s principal functions, namely, instruction, research and community (extension) service. UP has seven (7) constituent universities (CU) and one (1) autonomous unit based in the cities of Quezon, Manila, Davao, Baguio, Cebu and in the provinces of Laguna and Iloilo. 1. UP Diliman is the University’s flagship campus. It offers arts and sciences programs as well as professional programs such as engineering, law and accounting. It also has a campus in San Fernando, Pampanga. On 23 April 1982, UP Diliman was declared as a CU and started its operation as a CU on April 26 of the same year. 2. UP Los Baños started out as the College of Agriculture in 1909. It is one of the first units to be organized after UP’s founding in 1908. In 1972, the College of Agriculture evolved into a CU. 3. UP Manila is the country’s center of excellence in the health sciences, including health professional education, training and research. Originally established in 1 December 1905 as the Philippine Medical School and later called as the UP College of Medicine and Surgery in 10 June 1907. Again, it was renamed as the Health Sciences Center in 17 June 1967 and declared as autonomous member on 24 January 1979. In 23 March 1983, UP Manila was created as the 2nd CU of the UP System. a) In 1976, the University established the Institute of Health Sciences (IHS) in Tacloban, Leyte which was transferred in Palo, Leyte and renamed as the School of Health Sciences (SHS) in 1989. It aims to develop community- oriented health workers who would return to render service in the underserved places of origin from where they were recruited. 2 Compiled by: UPS-Budget Office – Planning Services Division, 2013 UP Statistics 2013 UP’s Main Thrust b) The 2nd SHS extension campus located at the northeastern region of Luzon was inaugurated on July 21st in honor of the University’s centennial anniversary in 2008. The SHS extension campus in Baler, Aurora aims to solve the mass exodus of doctors, nurses and midwives for greener pastures abroad and the maldistribution of the available health manpower in the country. c) The 3rd SHS extension campus was launched last 15 June 2010 in Koronadal, South Cotabato. The University has set up another extension campus of UP Manila’s SHS to bring medical and health education closer to remote areas of the Philippines in need of trained health care professionals. 4. UP Visayas was formally established as a CU of the UP System in 1979. Its main campus is located in Miag-ao, Iloilo. Other campuses are in Iloilo City and Tacloban City in Leyte. The CU is noted for its College of Fisheries. 5. UP Open University (OU) evolved from the UP Distance Education Program. Its creation was approved by the Board of Regents on 23 February 1995 as the fifth CU of the UP System. As of 31 December 2013, there are seven (7) Learning Centers, 21 Testing Centers and one (1) virtual Learning Center equipped with facilities that serve as venues for students here and abroad to enhance self-learning. 6. UP Mindanao was created on 20 February 1995 under Republic Act No. 7889. A resolution of the Board of Regents adopted UP Mindanao as the sixth member of the UP System on 23 March 1995 and started its operations on June 1996. Its campus is situated in Barangay Mintal, Tugbok District, Davao City. 7. UP Baguio started out as the College of Baguio and was inaugurated as a degree-granting unit on 22 April 1961. The College was formally established as the 7th CU of the UP System as approved by the Board of Regents in its meeting on 2 December 2002. As the hub of many cultural activities in Northern Luzon, UP Baguio has contributed to the development of the arts and the nurturing of the region’s cultural heritage. 8. The elevation of UP Visayas Cebu College to an Autonomous Unit (AU) under the Office of the President was approved on the 1260th meeting of the Board of Regents held on 24 September 2010. The autonomy will help prepare UP Cebu as a CU in the next five (5) to seven (7) years. Recently, UP has begun the establishment of the UP Professional Schools (UPPS), the University’s first graduate-level institution geared to deliver quality advanced education to career-driven professionals near the Central Business Districts of the country.
