MSU TCTO College of Business, Accountancy, and Management

16/06/2026

June 14-15, 2026 | Henry V. Kong Gymnasium

The Admissions Office successfully conducted an orientation and promotional event for the incoming freshmen of Academic Year 2026-2027 from June 14 to 15, 2026. Under the leadership of Dr. Regimar Rasid and with the vital support of the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, led by Dr. Wilham Hailaya and our dear University Chancellor Mary Joyce Z. Guinto-Sali, the two-day program served as a strategic platform to showcase the institution's distinct colleges and upcoming academic programs. The event was further strengthened by the active participation of essential student support units, including the OVCSA, OSR, University Library, OMaWS, and other offices, key student organizations such as KAWASA and the SSC.

The College of Business, Accountancy, and Management (CBAM) actively participated in the activity to promote its newly established programs: the Bachelor of Science in Accountancy and the Bachelor of Science in Tourism Management. Through this curriculum expansion, CBAM aims to inform prospective students that premium, specialized education is now accessible locally. This initiative offers a cost-effective alternative for students, eliminating the need to relocate to distant urban centers to pursue their chosen professions.

This comprehensive initiative underscores MSU TCTO's continuous commitment to academic excellence and inclusive development. By expanding program offerings and integrating essential institutional resources, the university ensures that incoming students have optimal pathways for professional growth. We look forward to welcoming the new cohort as they begin their higher education journey with us.

𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 📌

𝗧𝘂𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗮𝗴 | 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟯𝟬, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

The 𝘾𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙜𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝘽𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨, 𝘼𝙘𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙮, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 (𝘾𝘽𝘼𝙈) took a major step forward today in its commitment to community development! Led by Project Leader Assoc. Prof. Calvin Caliat, the CBAM team conducted a vital community meeting at Barangay Tubig Basag. With the invaluable support of the barangay officials, led by their dedicated Barangay Chairwoman Hon. Sitti Raiza Adong, the team brought residents together to lay the groundwork for a brighter, more sustainable future.

During the assembly, the team presented the findings of their recent survey and discussed the community's needs assessment. This allowed everyone to look closely at the true "heart of the people"—understanding the daily realities, challenges, and aspirations of the local farmers, and showing exactly how the upcoming projects will address those needs. To ensure the community has a strong, unified voice moving forward, the attendees also officially elected the officers for their soon-to-be-registered Farmers Association.

This initiative directly uplifts Barangay Tubig Basag by transforming individual farming efforts into a structured, organized enterprise. By establishing a formal Farmers Association, the community gains significantly stronger collective bargaining power, better access to government agricultural grants, and direct pathways to broader markets. Furthermore, CBAM’s expertise will bridge the gap between traditional farming and modern business management, equipping the farmers with essential financial literacy, entrepreneurial skills, and sustainable livelihood strategies that will boost their income and foster long-term economic stability.
