Description: University of the Philippines College of Engineering[1]The College of Engineering of the University of the Philippines Diliman[2] is the largest degree-granting unit in the U.P. System in terms of student population. The college is also known formally as UP COE, COE, and informally as Eng'g (pronounced "eng"). The College of Engineering is composed of eight (8) departments, six of which are housed in the historic Alejandro Melchor Hall[3] along Osmeña Avenue in the U.P. Diliman campus. The Electrical and Electronics Engineering Institute[4] has its own building along Velázquez Street in the Diliman Science Complex and Technology Incubation Park, while the Department of Computer Science[5] (along with the College Library) moved into their own buildings near the EEEI building in early 2007.[6] Founded on June 13, 1910, the UP College of Engineering offers the most comprehensive engineering curricula in the country. The National Engineering Center (NEC) is a related yet independent unit of the College of Engineering. The NEC is under the jurisdiction of the University of the Philippines System and provides research, consultancy, and continuing education services in the engineering and related fields. Whilst the U.P. COE is a unit purely dedicated to academic pursuit, the NEC serves industry and government institutions in need of engineering solutions. The NEC is housed within the Alfredo Juinio[7] Hall (formerly the National Engineering Center Building), located beside U.P. COE's Melchor Hall along Osmeña Avenue. As of 2006, the College of Engineering Dean, Dr. Rowena Cristina Guevara, also serves as the center's Executive Director. The Sundial is the official newsletter of the U.P. Alumni Engineers. Carrying the motto "The time of day it reckons, U.P. Engineers it beckons", the Sundial's first issue came out on October 25, 2004. Like the Logscript, the Sundial has the university landmark of the same name as its emblem.
