The Office of the Vice President for Research, Innovation, and Extension, together with its offices and centers, extends its sincerest gratitude to its outgoing Vice President, Atty. Wilmark J. Ramos, DBA, for his dedicated and inspiring service.

Through his visionary RIsE (Research, Innovation, and Sustainable Extension) Framework, Atty.

His commitment not only guided the OVPRIE offices and centers toward achieving greater milestones but also inspired every member of the OVPRIE family to pursue excellence with integrity, passion, and service.

More than a leader, he became a mentor and a source of encouragement whose dedication to advancing research, innovation, and extension will leave a lasting mark on the University and the communities it serves. The foundations he helped build and the vision he championed will continue to guide OVPRIE in the years ahead.

Maraming salamat po, Atty. Ramos, for your leadership, trust, and unwavering commitment. Your legacy of RIsE will continue to inspire us as we strive to create knowledge, foster innovation, and serve society. 💙

As we commemorate the 𝟏𝟐𝟖𝐭𝐡 𝐏𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲, we honor the courage and sacrifices of the Filipinos who fought for our nation's freedom.

Their legacy reminds us that independence is not only a part of our history but also a shared responsibility to contribute to the growth and progress of our country through our actions, service, and commitment to the common good.

The TSU Office of the Vice President for Research, Innovation, and Extension joins the nation in celebrating the freedom that allows us to learn, grow, and serve.

Seventeen (17) entries for the Arts, Business, Law, Education, and Social Sciences (ABLESS) category competed during the 6th Saliksiklaban on Monday (May 25) held at the Center for Food Technology and Research AVR, Lucinda campus.

Saliksiklaban is a university-wide undergraduate research competition that provides students with an avenue to develop social intellect, creative thinking, and innovation, and to foster a strong research culture in the university while inspiring them to conduct evidence-based research.

“Research must never end in the archive; too many find studies in this country are bound [to a] shelf and never open again. In fact, part of the DALAN program is to utilize our research, community-based research," University President Dr. Jasper Jay Mendoza said in his speech.

The ABLESS category (day 1) was paneled by Dr. Kenneth Armas, Director of the Planning and Development Office at the Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST), Dr. Joseph Richard Mejia, an author and full-time professor at PHINMA University of Pangasinan, and Dr. Danzen B. Olazo, Associate Professor II, Department of Management of Holy Angel University.

Organized by the Office of Innovation and Business Development, the 6th Saliksiklaban features thirty-seven (37) competing teams from ABLESS and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) categories.

The STEM category entries will be evaluated tomorrow, May 26, 2026.
