Polytechnic University Of the Philippines - PUP (reviews)

I like this university because it is really affordable to study here. All you need to include in your budget are books, transportation expenses, clothing and meals.

But when it comes to learning quality, it is really compromised by the learning facilities and some incompetent instructors.

Honestly, at first, I am very impressed at this university not until I became one of the student there. Due to the political conditions, budget cut, and corruption, the students are not able to utilize its resources and need to find alternatives like books that is expensive and not available in the library. Some of the professors and instructors were not following to the required hours of teaching and sometimes they are not present until the end of the semester. I love to fight this kind injustice in this university but the voice of few needs to be amplified.

It is not just a university; it is a home for various ideas and people from different life statuses. It takes a lot of courage to be in this university for it consistently gets criticized for its goal of serving the mass and the minority.

On the other hand, quality education is not merely about the institution or the professors, it’s about the students who paved the way to prove that PUP is one of the best state colleges in the Philippines.

Has a good curriculum but somehow lacks thorough thought of how to arrange the curriculum/courses. Some course were taken before a more important one. But still, the new curriculum presents competitiveness.

I have been studying at this university for the past six years; 2 years for my senior high school and 4 years for college. I would say that the most significant asset the university has is the dynamic people in it. People with different cultures and upbringings will surely teach you a thing or two.

The university should have a strict systematic way of giving subject loads to their professors and tracking those who are not attending their classes. Many students weren’t able to learn properly due to the nonappearance of some professors.

The best thing about this University is that you get to study for free, and has a good teaching. Also the main reason that I picked PUP is because of its top passing Engineering board exam passers. I got no dislikes on it, and I highly recommend it.

Faculty is not getting enough compensation for the heavy workload. The administration seems to lack in response in the student and faculty’s concerns. The facilities are way too outdated. I strongly do not recommend enrolling in this university
