What can the Top 4 Philippine Universities - UP-Diliman, La Salle, Ateneo & UST do to further improve their Asian rankings?

The most important thing that the top four schools can do now is to form a school-based interaction--helping each other out, exchanging ideas, formulating new ways for the betterment of Philippine education (whici in my opinion is getting worse).

All the top Ivy League schools in the US have some sort of coop between them. Why can't we do that here?

maybe because UA&P is relatively new. but i'd like to think it's starting to kick

Maybe these universities ought to learn from each other. Like UP learning from De La Salle its no frat poliscy. Or Ateneo learning from UST the number of digits of enrollment fees...;-).

The University of Asia & the Pacific(UA&P) is not in the Asiaweek Top 77 Asian Universities List.

Only Four Philippine Universities are in the Top 77 namely: UP-Diliman(No. 48),DLSU-Manila(No. 71), Ateneo(No. 72) & UST(No. 74).

For UP-Diliman since its evident that despite its annual P 10 Billion subsidy from the Philippine Government , it is NEVER enough - maybe its about time it raises its ridiculously low Tuition Fees.

Quality college education costs a big deal of money so if UP only relys on its annual doleout from the Philippine government then its present outmoded equipment & facilities would continue to deteriorate and so would its current Asian ranking.

How about have their students grow a brain on their own?

The Philippine Top 4 (UP, La Salle, Ateneo & UST) are doing their best to improve.

I just hope the rest of the Philippine Universities do something to improve.

Note: The University of the Philippines is a PUBLIC EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION. IT IS THE GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY TO ALLOT SUBSIDY TO U.P. AND OTHER STATE-RUN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS....kaya sa isang taga-UA&P dyan, hindi puwede na basta na lang itaas ang tuition ng UP coz not all UP studs are rich like you people are...isa pa, ba't ba ang kikitid ng uatk nyo...kagaya kayo ng isang senador dyan, "The State University caters more to the rich than to the poor...." ---->; HINDI KA DAPAT NAGING PUBLIC SERVANT KUNG NAPAKAKITID NG UTAK MO!


And about cooperation between UP,DLSU, ADMU and UST? It is possible. The things that they need to improve. For UP, its to heighten their standards and to be, at least, bette-equipped. And for DLSU and ADMU, to scrap their "coñotic" and "for the rich people only" image...and para sa UST, wag na sanang bahain ang España!

me myself i was bothered by the results of the survey.
i actually do not believe in them but a survey coming
from Asiaweek has a sound. i guess it is about time that the Ateneo
administration make necessary changes in its systems. we
do not know what went wrong. i still love my school.

Jul 3, 2000, 05:12 PM
well i think the four schools should learn from each other. if a school ever committed a mistake, other schools should try to avoid it. <;whtever that mistake will be>; :) kailangan lang to improve is to learn from your mistake diba. and another thing these schools should have a harmonic relationship and we can start this "harmonic relationship" that i am talking abt by not having "school wars". di dapat siraan ang ibang school. we can show our devotion to our very own alma maters in other ways. rather than saying bad things abt other schools. diba! kaya magmahalan tayong lahat! http://www.pinoyexchange.com/angel.gif

Lets build Network and not Walls;
Lets not Consume Each Other lets HELP one another!
Let us inspire the other schools so that philippine education can get something in return, and improve to a level more acceptable than now! beneficial for our Country, the World and to US!

Para matulungan naman natin ang Pilipinas its not turning for the better but sinking to what we may call oblivion of poverty and unjust human level!

Masarap siguro kung di lang Apat pero maraming Philippine institutions ang makilala para the MASA will get the share of Wealth that they have long been longin for! pero i think our generation will not see this! because ours need to do the toil that generations of the past had forgotten to work on!

Sana para we can all be proud to be Filipino! di kagaya ngayon!

You're right. There's a great need for the top universities to put their heads together and cooperate to improve the lamentable state of Phil. education. Dapat maging mas bukas na sila na magturo ang isang teacher sa iba pang school. Kahit pa survey-survey lang 'yan, may basehan din 'yan.
In the case of the Ateneo, a LOT of improvement has to be done and thank goodness they've started it. They raised the salary of teachers beginning last April and they're starting an IT building this August (daw). And I hope that it will maintain, if not improve, its quality of education despite the growing no. of students.

UP Can Shines More!...

Pero anong kwenta kong we dont see development& culture change in this country!.... Fernando Sarmenta was right!... it will be more satisfying if we can see more philippine schools! in the list!....

Building Network needs a lot of work specially if other school are only keen on making themselves superior kesa gawing superior lahat! para maraming Makinabang!...

...Ateneo ng mas extensive na course-offerings...

...ng mahal kong eskwelahan ang U.S.T. ng medyo malaking pasahod sa mga propesor para hindi na ma-pirate ng ibang eskwelahan...

...La Salle ang kahalagahan ng pagiging simple,at ang kahalagahan ng kahulugan ng pagiging humble...

The Top 4 Philippine universities are notches better than the rest of the Philippine universities.

You know what these 4 top schools can do for this country? They can all stop the bashing and chiding; then work for the betterment of the academe in general. Before trying to be among the best in Asia, leave a legacy to this country first. The soil that gave life to these institutions.

These schools are powerful institutions, the oldest and the best actually. No doubt about that. Unfortunately because of them, problems arise too. Seeing only "competition" as the main ingredient for success, PEX in particular has seen how these schools set the atmosphere in enmity. Witty exchange of words, subtle defiling, pretensions, apparent tarnishing of school names, feigning achievements, and most of all the neverending tale of stereotyping. All these contribute to further division, fostering negativity and you know what? Nothing happens.

If you're intelligent enough, I know you'll digest the gist of what that paragraph means.

Being the pillars, the potentialities are endless. Its simply us who can make the real wonders of the academe come alive for everyone! :)

UP has been there. Done that…
What UP needs right now is to partner with its equal peers abroad not with some cheap schools based locally. For example, UP and U of Tokyo, UP and Harvard or UP and Cambridge…
Pag UP and ADMU or UP and UST, walang dating ito sa UP. Baka nga nanakawin lang nila ang mga magagaling na profs ng UP or ko-kopyahin ang researches ng mga UP scientists. Mahirap makipag-collaborate sa mga third-tier universities na walang experienced sa malawakang researches. Hindi ito pabor sa UP, pabor ito sa mga gustong dumikit sa UP. Pero, pwede nilang bayaran ang UP para payagan silang dumikit nito…

sense of proportion, hijo. walang kinalaman ang bashing sa pex sa mga problemang iniinda ng academe o ng pamayanan, if you want to stretch it.

halimbawa, kung pexer man ang walang kwentang taga-up (meron ba otherwise) na si WIMPy fuentebella, i am sure he will the paragon of everything sweet and nice and gay here. pero naman, tignan mo ang ginagawa nya sa totoong buhay.

in a similar light, ateneo will continue to be head and shoulders above the rest in spite of, and if it wants to, even because of bashings in any forum at any level.

Ateneo has already started the collaboration process with international educational institutions. Ateneo already has the benefit of the Jesuit's vast international network of institutions, among others.

UP, on the other hand, does not have the resources nor the network. It's dependent on our government for its budget. There's very limited upside for UP. Beggars can be choosers. Neither can they be relied upon to lead. The future is dim.

Ateneo, DLSU and UST as private institutions with global networks of their own have more upside potential. They can collaborate amongst themselves as well as with their international counterparts.

They've been doing this, believe me. In fact, DLSU-Manila agreed to educate Atenean professors for their graduate studies thru a Memorandum of Agreement, among others.

Just a clarification. DLSU-Manila is helping Ateneo de Zamboanga (not ADMU) in the field of linquistics. ADMU does not offer linguistics.

ADMU also helps DLSU-Manila in its PhD programs in Mathematics and Chemistry.

There's plenty of reciprocity between these two schools.

ADMU and DLSU are also partners, together with Harvard, in the Asian Institute of Management, the best business school in the Philippines, bar none.

Correction too:

ADMU does not actually provide direct assistance to DLSU in the programs of Mathematics and Chemistry because the latter can stand on its own. What it has is a consortium agreement with DLSU and UP-Diliman in the areas of faculty exchange in the sciences (Chemistry, Math and Physics). Both Ateneo and La Salle also have a tie-up with Philippine Normal University in the areas of elementary education majoring in the sciences and in the field of Linguistics.

The ASSOCIATION OF PACIFIC RIM UNIVERSITIES:

Objectives

The Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU) is a consortium of 36 leading universities from 16 economies in the Pacific Rim. Formed in 1997, it aims to foster cooperation in education, research and enterprise thereby contributing to the economic, scientific and cultural advancement of Pacific Rim economies.
Structure and Organization

Member institutions are represented in APRU by their Presidents who meet annually to develop strategy and review APRU programs and initiatives. The Chairman of APRU is elected by the members and serves a two-year renewable term. The Chairman of APRU is Professor Shih, Choon Fong, President of the National University of Singapore.
The APRU Senior Staff Meeting is also held in addition to the Annual Presidents' Meeting to review the development and implementation of APRU activities. The meeting makes recommendation to the APRU Presidents.
Steering Committee
The Steering Committee provides leadership and guidance for the Association. It comprises Presidents from member universities representing Asia, Australasia, Latin America and North America. Members of the Steering Committee serve a three-year term. The APRU Chairman also serves as Chairman of the Steering Committee.
Membership

APRU membership reflects the geographical balance around the Pacific Rim. It represents the rich diversity of the region and promotes vibrant intellectual and cross-cultural exchanges among members. Members are recognized as leading educational institutions in their respective regions, with a track record of high quality academic research and education programs.

Membership Criteria

To be a member of APRU, candidate universities from around the Pacific Rim must satisfy the following criteria:

·Academic Excellence
A member university should be rated as a leading university of the country, or a premier university within its geographical region. It should have attained broad excellence in carrying out the activities of its educational mission. In particular, the university should have developed innovative and quality educational programs at degree and professional levels in a substantial number of fields.

·Research Intensity
Beyond the educational thrust, a member university must have a mission of promoting research and scholarship. This could be indicated by the level of research funding attracted and the research recognition received. Another indicator is the presence of high-quality, research-based programs conducted at the graduate level.

·Global Outlook
A member university should have a strong international orientation. This could be reflected in its student and faculty profile. The university should participate actively in international activities such as university consortiums, forums or meetings. Another indicator of a university’s global outlook is its research and educational collaborations with overseas institutions, including student, faculty and staff exchange programs.

·Innovative Dimension
A member university should incorporate an innovative dimension in its education and research as well as provide service to the local and international communities. It should promote the spirit of innovation in its activities and interactions with various stakeholders of innovation, such as industry and research agencies. A possible outcome of its innovation could be research and development leading to commercialization.

Admission Process

Candidates for new membership will be nominated and seconded by Steering Committee members. Members of the Steering Committee who nominate and second a candidate will write letters of recommendation that address the candidate university's qualifications regarding each of APRU's four membership criteria.
The Steering Committee will review these recommendations. Support by a two-thirds vote will be required by the Steering Committee before a candidate is suggested to APRU’s entire membership for consideration. Approval of a new member will require a three-fourths vote by the existing members.

Last time I checked, Oxford and Cambridge have more than 50 nobel prize recipients in their faculty, past and present, for a combined total or more than 100. Does UP even have one?:D

UP's "equal peers" abroad are the likes of University of Sri Langka, University of Papua New Guinea, Timbuktu Polytechnic, etc.....

NOT Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge, or of U. of Tokyo... unless you're just into bashing these fine institutions just like you love to bash your #1 local threat THE Ateneo.

But "sweetie" I can't, because we aren't.

To start, before we can even attempt to make a more ubiquitous approach we must start from the bottom. It's a long process but its very effective in due time and is rewarding. How can a pyramid reach the zenith if its base is weak? The government can start too, with a more robust family indoctrination and foundation, because that's where it all starts and if everyone belongs to a good family we can outdo the languishing system.

I presented PEX, because this is one world I live in presently. The world that is relative to all of us. I can't change the nation overnight neither can you, but I can start with my own simple way. You can start right away too. Stop your bashing, maybe we can start from somewhere. If you can't stomach other schools existing here, you can always leave, nobody's asking you to read our school's achievement. We don't even bother reading yours, so to each his own.

Kaya alam mo, hindi matigilan ng iba na gamitan ka ng walang katapusang kaeklatan at mala-delubyong pambabara kasi hindi ka makausap ng matino. Sa tuwing may magbibigay ng sariling palagay na taliwas sa pag-iisip mo, anong gagawin mo? Siguro subukan mong kilatisin muna ang sarili mo.

It should not follow that because UP has not produced a nobel winner this becomes unworthy for this university to partner with universities abroad that have already produced one or more nobel winners. This is a perfect reasoning of a pathetic loser!
UP has not yet produced a nobel awardee but it has already produced several Magsaysay awardees, the Asian version of nobel according to most experts.
The nobel is pro white. Rarely can an Asian and an African claim this award even if there are a lot of Japanese, Indians and Chinese geniuses who pioneered in the sciences, economics or technology.
But just the same, Stanford and Cal-Berkeley have invited UP to join in an association that foster academic relevance in the Pacific.

If you’re questioning that UP has to partner with U of Tokyo then I guess it’s too late for you to question that now. Both famous universities have already signed a memorandum of agreement to foster collaboration through faculty exchange and students.
Have you heard of the “teleconferencing” proudly announced by one of the pexers? That’s a manifestation of current and future collaboration between these two top universities.

Well, I may be proud that so far only UP has done what most university presidents have perceived a “quantum leap” in advanced education but I’ll be happy to see one day when DLSU, ADMU and UA&P will learn from this UP’s experience.

So, don’t be bitter and cry like a baby if your obvious second-rate university has viewed this as a whole new revolution of a truly world-class undertaking because whatever UP’s achievements and accomplishments are, it extends these to its substandard neighbors. UP is not tightfisted in sharing intellectual information to other universities and you should know this if you claim you are from taeneo. Taeneo University pirates UP profs from time to time.

it all comes to money. schools like CRC, DLSU-taft and rockwell invite some management guru or best-selling writer to speak. they also invite the public to attend the forum ---for a fee.

at UP, the various colleges and departments feature lectures from nobel prize winners and former heads of state.

And for DLSU and ADMU, to scrap their "coñotic" and "for the rich people only" image...and para sa UST, wag na sanang bahain ang España! [/B]

I'm from DLSU and proud of it. I must comment though on your statement that DLSU students are coño and that the school, for the rich. That can no longer be farther from the truth. I must admit that there are DLSU students who are coño, but almost all of them can only be found in the Colleges of Business and Economics and Liberal Arts. And they're not even a lot of them. As for the "for the rich people" only, I must strongly disagree. There are a lot of students who benefit from the scholarship programs offered by the school, and these students are not at all well-off. And DLSU also caters to the education of the underprivileged outside the university. There are LS schools offered in the provinces that ask for only 10,000 tuition a year. I think it's in Misamis... But I do know that one of those is an engineering school. There are even night classes conducted in LSGH for 200 pesos a month. Mostly they are for the unfortunate adults who weren't able to finish school and through the night schooling, they get to hold a degree. This is all part of St. John Baptist de La Salle's mission of education for the underprivileged.

First of all, the question on which school is #4 still remain unsettled.

Yung top 3 pa lang established: Up-The Ateneo-La Salle

The Triumvirate.

Right!

Meron ding Night School sa De La Salle Zobel. Remember, gicing quality education to the socialy disadvantaged ang main mission ng La Salle schools.

Para matulungan naman natin ang Pilipinas its not turning for the better but sinking to what we may call oblivion of poverty and unjust human level!

Masarap siguro kung di lang Apat pero maraming Philippine institutions ang makilala para the MASA will get the share of Wealth that they have long been longin for! pero i think our generation will not see this! because ours need to do the toil that generations of the past had forgotten to work on!

Sana para we can all be proud to be Filipino! di kagaya ngayon!

To start, before we can even attempt to make a more ubiquitous approach we must start from the bottom. It's a long process but its very effective in due time and is rewarding. How can a pyramid reach the zenith if its base is weak? The government can start too, with a more robust family indoctrination and foundation, because that's where it all starts and if everyone belongs to a good family we can outdo the languishing system.

I presented PEX, because this is one world I live in presently. The world that is relative to all of us. I can't change the nation overnight neither can you, but I can start with my own simple way. You can start right away too. Stop your bashing, maybe we can start from somewhere. If you can't stomach other schools existing here, you can always leave, nobody's asking you to read our school's achievement. We don't even bother reading yours, so to each his own.

Kaya alam mo, hindi matigilan ng iba na gamitan ka ng walang katapusang kaeklatan at mala-delubyong pambabara kasi hindi ka makausap ng matino. Sa tuwing may magbibigay ng sariling palagay na taliwas sa pag-iisip mo, anong gagawin mo? Siguro subukan mong kilatisin muna ang sarili mo.

UST can start improving by closing its doors on corrupt officials and by resolving the case about the ROTC related killing of a thomasian

also, they can improve by teaching the varsitarian how to get credible sources as to prevent them from writing lies

The four schools will have to increase admission standards, and that will mean receiving only around 15 percent of students compared to the number that they are admitting right now.

The four will have to work together and form one university filled with mostly Ph.D.s and students from that 15 percent who plan to engage in research for the sciences or the humanities. The university libraries and laboratories should be consolidated to aid them in their academic work. Financial scholarships should be emphasized for this track since students will not be working outside the university.

The other 85 percent should be invited to take two- to four-year diploma courses in business and related subjects. Faculty members with master's degrees should teach in these technical schools, and the schools should work with businesses and other organizations. (Part of the course work should involve a practicum--preferably, only working students should be admitted, with recommendations from their employers. The money earned from work and support from companies should pay for the tuition, which shouldn't be very high because the working student will not have to subsidize expensive university facilities. But these technical schools may be run by universities and may provide part of research funding.)

The hard part is convincing Philippine employers that a college or university degree is not necessary for much of white-collar work and that management and similar subjects may be taught through diploma courses and certification. It might also be difficult convincing most Filipino students that they are not prepared for university-level work, and should accept vocational or technical training. Finally, the government will have to collect taxes effectively in order to subsidize university education.

In order to make either track appealing, perhaps some sort of wage scale system should be put in place. That is, a researcher or teacher with a university degree should make roughly the same amount of money as a manager with a technical diploma.

Plus the mere fact that you have a legit job (whether it be a taxi driver, maid or call center rep) and pay your taxes, your already doing your part for the economy.
