Taking education far and wide is part of PUP’s 10-point plan to make the public, non-sectarian, non-profit institution of higher learning a “total university”

“We intend to deliver education right to the doorsteps of our fellow Filipinos,” says Dr. Dante G. Guevarra, president of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP). The state-owned institution now has 23 centers across the country, with the flagship main campus in Sta Mesa, Manila. It also reaches some of the remotest areas of the country through its Open University System programs. “My number one mission is to create a high quality campus environment,” says Dr. Guevarra. The drive is part of his 10-point plan to make PUP a “total university”.
