West Visayas State University has created and sustained this educated and innovative workforce and the capacity to generate and apply new knowledge, supported through policies and investments in developing human capital, technological innovations and entrepreneurial skills. The pillars of Knowledge-based economy are that knowledge becomes the key engine of economic growth. Knowledge economy is one where knowledge is acquired, created, disseminated and applied to enhance economic development. In this age of globalization and rapid advances in technology development, the principal goal of West Visayas State University is to produce globally competitive workforce. In order for the University to guide, support, and produce the desired globally competitive workforce, there are missions to be achieved to realize its vision of becoming one of the top universities in Southeast Asia. The major instruments that influenced the development of quality, relevance, and effectiveness of the University in response to its mandate are the following: - Regulation/quality assurance which contributes about 20% to the attainment of the University’s vision like accreditation of programs and its compliance, teaching effectiveness, improving its faculty profile and improving the performance of graduates in the Licensure Examinations so that employment of graduates will be improved and to make the University’s study programs attractive to foreign students; - Improvement of research quality until the end product will be commercialized which will benefit the community the University serves; and - Access and equity for the poor but deserving students needing assistance is improved to realize social equality in the society, an indication that “Education is the Foundation of Economic Prosperity and Individual Liberty, Justice and Self Worth.” We then believe, that in promoting quality and excellence in education, improving access and equity, and making human resource more globally competitive, the University is certainly transforming itself as a venue through modest steps in its journey towards enhancing the quality of life of its graduates, the community, especially the Filipino youth of this generation and the generations to come -- thus, realizing our dream for the University to become one of the top universities in Southeast Asia. 6 PABLO E.
