Mapua is finished! The Glorious School is no more but a mere shadow of its reputation

[Liam2]

I don't think they violate the rule. MAPUA has its own standard and rules that will make them to follow or just quit schooling. The school is facing competition with other schools. kelngan i- maintain ang status nila O baka matalo na ng iba. tingnan niyo na lng ang mga nag top sa mga exams sa Engineering. Ganyan ang labanan ngayun.

[Harangody]

Kawawa naman yan, another 4-8 years nanaman. Pero tama naman MAPUA eh, sobrang bilis ng technology, 8 years ago wala pa mga netbook, tablets, flat screens etc.

[flakez]

alumni din ako ng Mapua. kawawa naman, pero kung nagbago nga ng curriculum eh no choice. mukhang wala siya magagawa.

teka, hindi ba pag nagbago ng curriculum eh dapat yung incoming freshmen lang ang gagamit non? kasi kung iaapply yun sa lahat dapat lahat sila mag start from scratch. so after 4 years lang dapat bago ma phased-out lahat ng old subjects.

[MrQ5]

baka kinulang ng OT yung TS o di na uso?

[MrQ5]

noon panahon namen, kay bait nung pres Mapua (sir Obi? iirc) kahit kick out na yung estudyante basta may promisory note at nagmaka-awa personal na ok na,
- same case nung TS yung ka boardmate ko dati batch 91 or '92 sya pero di na offer yung subject na kulang nya (reason naghinto dahil nag volunteer sa Mormons) grabe ng matrikula nya sobra laki ng dipresenya ang mura 3,000 lang my CM na. pinakuha sya sa kulang, sya lang estudyante ng instructor espesyal hehehe... (naabutan kasi ako ng 10% inc/sem from 8,000 petot:freshmen-16K petot :graduate)

Tama ka kung in the same batch kaparin. Kaso yung batch year na kasama si TS matagal ng nag graduate.
So yung curriculum na under sya matagal ng non existent.

[glenn_duke]

Mapua Graduate also here.
Agree with niky, medyo complicated sya kasi iba yung course nya. kung Civil or mechanical yan baka pwede pa.
still remember my ECE instructor back then, "what we are studying now maybe obsolete by the time you graduate, but at least you know the basic and how did it evolved"

Mas lalo na ang engineering, mas mabilis ang development ng technology.
yung ka batch ko sa subject na surveying, sumabit, pag retake nya mas bagong model nayung gamit nilang instrument. Kaming pumasa pa ang nalugi kasi lumang model yung napagpraktisan namin.

Oo, sa freshmen lang dapat mag-apply yun bagong curriculum. Tsaka yun mga subjects under ng curriculum mo, eh may corresponding equivalent naman yan doon sa bagong curriculum.

baka kinulang ng OT yung TS o di na uso?

Hahaha!!! 2003 batch niya, which is 1 year younger sa batch ko (2002 kasi ako), so I guess may OT pa naman yan sila. Pero ewan ko lang kung may mga OT din sa Makati Campus.

I feel very sorry sa Mapua, which is my alma mater, naging pera pera nalang ngayon ang school. Gone are the glory days of Mapua, under Don Tomas Mapua and his family. Now that Yuchengco bought the school, ito na ang nangyayari. Kawawa naman ang mga kapos-palad...

Kahit sa public university may expiration ang subjects. Reason is keeping up with the times. Ganun talaga sa college. Kawawa talaga yung mga paputol-putol yung aral.

My personal opinion is that there must be an expiration talaga because times really change and to be competitive nga naman, students must get the most current education possible. Now for the ideal expiration, I think 4 years is too short nga.

Maybe CHED could create an exemption for cases like this.
