PSU-Alaminos embarks on expansion project
WITH the accreditation recently granted by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED), the Pangasinan State University (PSU)-Alaminos campus now expects to attract more enrollees to the six courses it offers.
The campus, with 1,200 students enrolled for the current school year, is currently undertaking an expansion program worth P12.5 million.
In addition, the Bayanihan Center for Rural Development (BCRD) in the city will be converted into a hotel for use by PSU hotel management students.
The BCRD will also be utilized as classrooms, offices, training center, catering services area, dormitory for teachers and selected students and visitors of PSU and the city.
Alaminos Mayor Hernani Braganza also recently obtained approval from the Sangguniang Panlungsod for the allocation of P10 million for scholarship grants to poor but deserving high school graduates from the city.
Aside from Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management, the school also offers Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education, and Bachelor of Science in Agriculture.
The PSU-Alaminos campus is a joint project of the state university and the Alaminos City government.
Simeon Cabansag, dean of the PSU Sta. Maria campus, said the partnership between the city government and the PSU is a model that can be replicated in other parts of the country. (PIA-Pangasinan)
