Center for Innovation in Engineering Education - CIEE

🎄Season’s Greetings from the BatStateU's Center for Innovation in Engineering Education!✨

Our heartfelt thanks to our partners and stakeholders who made 2025 a truly fruitful year.

Looking forward to strengthening our shared journey and working together again in the year ahead!

Batangas State University, through its Center for Innovation in Engineering Education (CIEE), proudly recognizes its partner, the Centre for Engineering Education UTM (Universiti Teknologi Malaysia), for its significant role in co-leading the BatStateU trademarked OBEE National Training Series under the National Engineering Education Development (NEED) Program.

Most recently, the Visayas–Mindanao Leg (Batch 3) of the OBEE National Training Series was conducted on October 14–17, 2025, at the Belmont Hotel Mactan, Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, gathering 65 participants from 33 HEIs mostly from the Visayas and Mindanao regions, along with select representatives from Luzon).

This VisMin Leg marked the 3rd and final installment of the 2025 OBEE National Training Series, following the Luzon Leg (Batch 2) held on June 2–5, 2025, at Kingsford Hotel, Parañaque City, and the foundational series (Part 1 and Part 2) conducted from December 9–11, 2024, and February 4–5, 2025, respectively, at Parañaque and Batangas State University Pablo Borbon Campus, respectively.

Collectively, these earlier batches engaged over 220 engineering deans and program chairs from across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, strengthening institutional competencies in curriculum design, program assessment, and continuous quality improvement (CQI).

We extend our appreciation to Prof. Dr. Shahrin Mohammad and Dr. Nurzal Effiyana Ghazali of UTM CEE, who have co-developed and co-delivered the OBEE modules alongside the BatStateU OBEE team led by CIEE Director Prof. Divina Gracia D. Ronquillo, with supports from the national government, Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and the Philippine Technological Council (PTC).

Together, we continue to build a stronger, outcome-based foundation for Philippine engineering education!

The BatStateU-Industry Microcredentials Program has commenced for-credit offerings for undergraduate and graduate students, with instructors and industry practitioners also participating in the initial batches for professional development.

Beginning February 2025, intensive courses on GIS and BIM have been conducted at the Engineering Design and Simulation Laboratory, STEER Hub, Alangilan Campus. The 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐈𝐒 𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐆𝐈𝐒 and 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐁𝐈𝐌) 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐤 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐭 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 courses have successfully run several batches, attended by 𝐁𝐒 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 undergraduates, students of the 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐔𝐫𝐛𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 (𝐌𝐔𝐏𝐃), professional architects, and faculty members. The combined number of trained participants has now approached one hundred and is expected to exceed that milestone by the end of the ongoing batches.

These offerings are made possible through BatStateU’s partnerships with leading industry providers—𝐆𝐞𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐒𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐈𝐧𝐜. 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐈𝐒 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐈𝐌 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐜. 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐁𝐈𝐌—in collaboration with the University’s own teaching and research personnel. These partnerships ensure that learners gain direct exposure to industry tools, standards, and best practices, delivered through thoughtfully designed pedagogy and assessment.

In January 2025, the CIEE introduced the BatStateU-Industry Microcredentials to senior students of the College of Architecture, Fine Arts and Design (CAFAD) at the Leonardo da Vinci Amphitheater, with strong interest noted from the BS Architecture program. The orientation and rollout were conducted with the support of the CAFAD Dean Ar. Edmon C. Mendoza.

The courses are ongoing and will soon open their next batches for students, faculty, and professionals from other disciplines. Programs in engineering, technology, computing, and related fields are encouraged to explore upcoming microcredentials tailored to their respective industries.
