UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES VISAYAS
HISTORY, GOALS, AND OBJECTIVES

The university of the Philippines Visayas was established by the board of

regents on May 31, 1979 in response to the need to accelerate the development
of fisheries and marine resources of the country. The concept of a new
autonomous university of the UP System, as conceived in 1975, was to be
realized by means of an expanded fisheries education, research, and extension
service programs with its main campus in Miagao, IIoilo and with the College of
Fisheries as its flagship college.

On October 30, 1980, Executive Order No. 628 operationalized the UP

Visayas as an autonomous unit of the University of the Philippines System, which
was to consist of the College of Fisheries, College of Arts and Sciences, Institute
of Fisheries Development and Research, Brackishwater Aquaculture Center,
School of Development Management, Graduate School, School of Technology
and such other units as may be approved and funded pursuant to the provisions
of the General Appropriations Act.

As the fourth autonomous university of the UP System, UP Visayas aims to

1) develop excellence and leadership in fisheries and marine education, research
and extension in the country, 2) expand opportunities for professional and
technical training to the rural areas, 3) contribute to professional and technical
training to the rural areas, 4) contribute to rural development through relevant
instructional, research and extension programs in management, education,
engineering, health and related fields, and 5) preserve and enhance the national
and Visayan cultural heritage.

In 1986, UP Cebu and UP Tacloban Colleges were integrated into UP

Visayas. However, in September 2010, the UP Board of Regents approved UP
Cebu as an autonomous unit, leaving UPV with only five academic units effective
January 2011.

UPV ILOILO CITY
HISTORY
Before the establishment of the UPV
Campus at Miagao, the University had its Iloilo City
campus only, then known as the UP College Iloilo,
which offered academic programs and services in
the humanities, social sciences, physical sciences,
management and fisheries. With UPV’s expansion
and the transfer of the main campus in Miagao, the
Iloilo City unit became an extension campus and is
now home to the College of Management, High
School Department, Graduate Program Office,
Division of Professional Education, Office of
Continuing Education and Pahinungod, UP Open
University, UPV Legal Services Office, UPV Office
of Alumni Relations, UPV Art Gallery, and liaison
