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 public service. On 29 April 2008, Republic Act No. 9500 known as “The University of the Philippines Charter of 2008” was signed into law by then President Gloria Macapagal- Arroyo. UP was declared as the national university and mandated to “perform its unique and distinctive leadership in higher education and development.” UP has eight (8) constituent universities (CU) spread in twenty-one (21) campuses located in the cities of Quezon, Manila, Taguig and Muntinlupa in the National Capitol Region and in the provinces of Benguet, Tarlac, Pampanga, Zambales, Aurora, Laguna, Iloilo, Cebu, Leyte, Davao del Sur, Davao del Norte and South Cotabato. 1. UP Diliman (UPD), the University’s flagship campus, offers arts and sciences programs as well as professional programs such as engineering, law and accounting.
