Four more years! โš™๏ธ๐ŸŒป

We are pleased to share that the undergraduate program of the UP Diliman Department of Mechanical Engineering, the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BSME), has been granted four (4) years of accreditation, covering AY 2025โ€“2026 through AY 2028โ€“2029.

The accreditation follows the programโ€™s Interim Review, including the on-site visit conducted on March 23โ€“24, 2026. The program was assessed and evaluated by the Philippine Technological Council (PTC) Evaluation Team, with the findings reviewed and moderated by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) and the accreditation action decided upon by the Accreditation & Certification Board for Engineering & Technology (ACBET).

The approved accreditation action noted no deficiency, weakness, or concern and recognized the satisfactory actions undertaken by the program in response to findings from the previous accreditation review. The four-year accreditation extends through the programโ€™s next General Comprehensive Review.

The Department thanks its faculty, staff, students, alumni, and partners whose continued work and support contribute to the quality of mechanical engineering education at UP Diliman.

Padayon, UPD DME! ๐ŸŒป
