The College of Science (COS) has officially gained access to the 7th floor of the Science Building following a turnover ceremony with Dakay Construction and Development Corp. on May 11, 2026.

The 7th floor is designated for new lecture halls and laboratories, significantly expanding the college's capacity for theoretical and experimental work. This turnover follows the phased opening of the building, which began with the ground floor in late 2023 and was followed by the 2nd through 6th floors housing the Math, Statistics, Computer Science, and Biology programs.

While the 7th floor is now under university jurisdiction, the administration targets full occupancy and utilization by the first semester of the next academic year. Work continues on the remaining levels and the procurement of specialized laboratory equipment to meet the growing needs of the student population.

The College of Science, University of the Philippines Cebu proudly announces the upcoming PASIDUNGOG 2026: Recognition Rites for the College of Science Academic Honorific Scholars.

With the theme “Honor, Excellence, and Service: Iskolars Advancing Scientific Knowledge for Society,” this special event celebrates the outstanding academic achievements and contributions of our honorific scholars for A.Y 2024-2025.

The Recognition Rites will be held face-to-face on April 29, 2026, at the Performing Arts Hall (PAH), UP Cebu.

We are also honored to have Arvin S. Arbuis as our guest speaker, who will share inspiring insights with our scholars and community.

More updates and details will be posted soon on our official page.

The Alternative Classroom Learning Experience (ACLE) in University of the Philippines Cebu is more than just a break from regular classes, it’s a day dedicated to learning beyond the syllabus.

From discussions and pressing social issues to creative workshops and interactive sessions, ACLE brings together a wide range of topics, facilitated by invited speakers, student organizations, and advocates. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, perspectives are broadened, and conversations matter.

Organized by the UPC USC alongside the Unified Student Organization (UNISO), ACLE is designed to be student-driven, engaging, and relevant to the times.

Held once every semester, ACLE brings the entire campus together for a half-day to whole-day of simultaneous sessions, giving you the freedom to choose what you want to learn.

📣 For this year’s ACLE, happening this April 24, 2026 (Friday) with the theme 𝗗𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗔𝗕 𝘅 𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗚 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: 𝗜𝘀𝗸𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗻, 𝗜-𝘂𝗴𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗞𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗮 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝗮 𝘂𝗴 𝗧𝘂𝗻-𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗞𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗯𝗮𝗻!, we’re excited to introduce the lineup of programs you can join, from insightful discussions to hands-on workshops and everything in between.

The UP College of Science once again asserts its academic and competitive excellence after securing its third Iskolaro Championship title, marking a continued legacy of dominance and distinction in the university-wide competition.

In a formal turnover ceremony, Dean Alvin Roxas received the championship trophy from Ms. Joanalyn Cadampog, Chairperson of the UP Cebu Sciences Federation, together with the Sciences Federation officers and student representatives from the various academic programs under the College of Science. The moment reflects not only victory, but the collective strength, collaboration, and unity of disciplines that define the College.

As the Golden Scions celebrate a back-to-back triumph, the achievement stands as a testament to sustained excellence, shared purpose, and the enduring pursuit of academic and organizational distinction.

𝐔𝐏𝐂𝐒𝐅 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓: 𝐔𝐁𝐀𝐍 𝐓𝐀 𝐒𝐀 𝐀𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐋 𝟐𝟏 𝐖𝐀𝐋𝐊𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐊𝐄!

Sigeg saka ang presyo sa krudo. Sigeg saka ang pamasahe sa jeep ug bus. Sigeg saka ang presyo sa pagkaon ug palaliton. Sigeg saka ang bayranan sa kuryente ug tubig. Padayon ang pagsaka sa gasto sa pag-eskwela.

Sa nagpadayon nga krisis sa presyo sa krudo, pagsaka sa panaliton, ug kakulang sa tinuod nga tubag gikan sa gobyerno, dili na igo nga magpabilin lamang ta sulod sa atong mga classroom. Ang edukasyon dili bulag sa kahimtang sa katilingban. Ang krisis sa gawas, krisis usab nato isip mga estudyante.

Ang UP Cebu Sciences Federation, uban sa tanang academic organizations sa College of Science, nanawagan sa tanang estudyante sa COS nga moapil ug motindog sa umaabot nga walkout karong 𝐀𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐥 𝟐𝟏, alas 𝟖 𝐬𝐚 𝐛𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠, kauban ang atong mga academic organizations.

Ang padayon nga pagsaka sa presyo sa krudo ug batakang panaliton direkta nga nakaapekto sa atong kinabuhi isip estudyante: sa pamasahe, pagkaon, kuryente, ug bisan sa atong abilidad nga makapadayon sa atong pag-eskwela. Kini bunga sa sistema nga nag-unang giisip ang ganansya sa pipila ka dagkong kompanya samtang ginapabay-an ang panginabuhi sa masa. Samtang naglisod ang katawhan, padayon gihapon ang mga polisiya nga nagpalalom sa krisis imbis nga maghatag og tinuod nga solusyon.

Dili lamang kita ang apektado. Kauban nato ang mga mamumuo, drayber, mag-uuma, ug uban pang sektor nga padayon nga nag-antos sa sistema nga nag-unang giisip ang ganansya kaysa kaayohan sa katawhan.

Uban sa atong academic organizations ug uban pang sektor, panahon na nga ipakita nato nga ang estudyante dili pasibo kundili aktibo kita sa pakigbisog alang sa hustisya ug kaayohan sa tanan. Ang walkout dili pagtalikod sa edukasyon, kundili pagpanindog aron maprotektahan kini.

Dili na ta maghilom. Dili na ta magpabilin sulod sa classroom samtang nagkagrabe ang krisis sa gawas.

𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐠, 𝐦𝐨𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐥, 𝐮𝐠 𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐭𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐡𝐢𝐮𝐬𝐚. 𝐀𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐚 𝐦𝐨-𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐚, 𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐥𝐢 𝐦𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢!

The Golden Scions claim the crown thrice over, securing the threepeat title of 𝙊𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙞𝙤𝙣 this Iskolaro 2026. Back-to-back-to-back, and still moving forward.

As shared by Ms. Fitness COS representative, 𝘐𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘝𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘺-𝘰𝘯, “We run—but not away from our problems. Instead, we run toward them.” Each game that brought us here reflected our commitment to confront obstacles head-on. And as Iskolars ng Bayan, this mindset extends far beyond the court. We do not turn away from the pressing issues of our nation, nor remain passive in the face of injustice. We engage. We question. We act. Because ignorance and apathy will not move our country forward.

Our triumph isn’t just about trophies, it’s about standing with the people. Every sprint, every point, every victory becomes a declaration of solidarity with the farmers, workers, and communities who shape our nation. For fair land distribution, just wages, sustainable livelihoods, accessible education, and the rights of the underserved. We carry these struggles with us, turning energy into action. For Iskolaro is more than a competition; it is a proving ground. It’s where strength is measured not only in wins, but in our unwavering commitment to justice and the welfare of the people.
