Mapúa University has earned a coveted position among the world’s best schools. Chris Hill, Chief Strategy Officer and Head of Asia Pacific at Cintana, expressed delight in collaborating with Mapúa schools, which were chosen as the Philippine champions due to their long-standing reputation for innovation and academic excellence. Mapúa’s recent ranking as one of the top four Philippine universities, alongside UP, Ateneo, and La Salle, in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings further validates the quality of a Mapúan education.
These credentials, coupled with the shared commitment of both academic institutions towards transformative education, form the foundation of Mapúa MCL’s new business and health sciences programs. Dodjie Maestrecampo, President & CEO of Mapúa Malayan Colleges Laguna and Mindanao, explains that Mapúa has long focused on delivering internationalized, digitally-enhanced, outcomes-based, research-driven education to its students, relying heavily on innovation to realize these plans. Collaborating with a global university will further enhance these plans by providing students with greater opportunities to learn. The ASU-enhanced curriculum remains faithful to Mapúa’s legacy, with the school of business emphasizing global immersion and real-world experiential learning, while the health sciences programs prioritize global readiness and advanced immersive facilities. In addition, both disciplines integrate digital mastery to align with the data-driven landscape of the world.
Mapúa Malayan Colleges Laguna (Mapúa MCL) is one of Mapúa’s three major campuses in the Philippines. Established in 2007 in Cabuyao, Laguna, it has consistently ranked among the best board exam performing private schools and became the first ISO 21001:2018 – EOMS certified school in the Calabarzon area.
