Data collection and consolidation is done by the Planning Services Division of the UP System Budget Office under the Office of the Vice-President for Planning and Finance. Data are provided mainly by the 1) Registrars, 2) Vice-Chancellors for Academic Affairs 3) Vice-Chancellors for Research and Development/Extension, and 4) Vice Chancellors for Administration through the Offices of the Chancellors or in the case of UP Cebu, through the Office of the Dean. The UP System collects and uses these data to fulfill various recurring requirements of other national government offices such as the 1) Department of Budget and Management, 2) Commission on Higher Education, 3) House of Representatives, 4) Senate, and 5) Commission on Audit. The UP Statistics also includes a copy of the new UP Charter. The UP Charter was signed into law (Republic Act No. 9500) by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo on 29 April 2008 at the Library Building conference hall of UP Visayas Cebu College, Cebu City.

Units Created by Law /Presidential Issuances 57 Compiled by: UPS-Budget Office – Planning Services Division, 2013 1 UP’s Main Thrust UP Statistics 2013 UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES SYSTEM UP was established on 18 June 1908 by Act No. 1870 “to provide advanced instruction in literature, philosophy, the sciences and arts, and to give professional and technical training to every qualified student regardless of age, sex, nationality, religious belief, or political affiliation.” The first three academic units organized were the Colleges of Fine Arts, Medicine and Surgery, and Agriculture. 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. Compiled by: UPS-Budget Office – Planning Services Division, 2013 3 UP’s Main Thrust UP Statistics 2013 1. UP Professional Schools Bonifacio Global City (UPPS-BGC) was created upon the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement with Deed of Conveyance (MOA-DOC) between UP System and the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) on 19 July 2011. A 4,300-square-meter BCDA property in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) Taguig City was donated for this purpose. The ground-breaking ceremony was held on 24 July 2012. Initially, UPPS-BGC will be offering UP Diliman’s graduate Engineering, Business, Statistics programs and professional degree program in Law. It will also serve as a distance learning center of UP Open University. 2. UP Professional Schools Cebu (UPPS-Cebu), located in the Cebu South Road Properties (SRP) in Cebu City, was inaugurated on 30 January 2013. UPPS-Cebu is currently offering graduate degree programs in Business Administration, Education, Computer Science and Environmental Studies under the aegis of UP Cebu faculty and staff. 4 Compiled by: UPS-Budget Office – Planning Services Division, 2013 UP Statistics 2013 UP’s Main Thrust UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES SYSTEM Location Map As of CY 2013 Compiled by: UPS-Budget Office – Planning Services Division, 2013 5 UP’s Main Thrust UP Statistics 2013 BLANK PAGE 6 Compiled by: UPS-Budget Office – Planning Services Division, 2013 UP Statistics 2013 UP’s Main Thrust UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES SYSTEM ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE Board of Regents President Alfredo E.

Campos1* and Porfirio M. Aliño2 1 Division of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences University of the Philippines Visayas (Miag-ao, Iloilo 5023) 2 Marine Science Institute, College of Science University of the Philippines Diliman (Diliman, Quezon City 1101) Abstract This study presents recent advances in the management of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the Philippine from the mid-1970s, when the first MPA was established, to the present. At present, there are over 1300 established and proposed MPAs in the country. More than 50% of these are less than 10ha in size. As a result, less than 2% of the country’s reef areas are under some level of protection, which is believed to be too low for protective measures to have an impact. In terms of management, only 10-15% of established MPAs are effectively managed. Several challenges are posed by these major shortcomings. Two approaches have recently been initiated to address these. The MPA Support Network (MSN) was recently established to link various efforts and initiatives in managing MPAs in the different regions of the country. There are also recent efforts of developing schemes for truly science-based establishment of MPA networks. Introduction Marine Protected Areas in the Philippine have been established with a wide range of goals including the conservation and protection of fishery resources/ biodiversity, for cultural and historical purposes, for aes- thetic reasons, and for research and educational concerns (Miclat and Ingles, 2004).

Changes to the scientific program will be published on an addendum that will be posted on messages board. 2 In line with this year’s theme, the logo symbolizes the strategic cooperation between the scientific community and the different facets of the local institutions and the government to achieve wholesome and sustainable seas. The lower half signifies the ocean while the upper half shows the diversity of marine life and its interconnectivity with food security and environmental resilience. The halves meet at the center forming a handshake embodying the common understanding of the local communities, government, academe, private sector, NGOs, and especially the Filipino masses on the protection, management, and holistic conservation of the oceans. Lastly, the hues used also represent the colors of the sea at the break of dawn, signifying a new chapter for a more hopeful, science-based, and community- oriented future of the Philippine seas.
