College of Engineering (CE)

With the conviction of providing quality education and offering technical manual skills in the field of technology, the College of Engineering  of the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila was established on July 1, 1969 - six years after the late Mayor Antonio F. Villegas founded the university.

Originally under the College of Arts and Letters, the main trust of the college was to provide technical, industrial, vocational education to PLM students alongside the humanistic courses to prepare them for promoting out technology under two divisions, namely - the Division of Engineering and Technology which covered the Department of Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Sanitary, Chemical, Naval and Industrial Engineering and the Division of Technical and Vocational Education which covered the Department of Electronics, Wood Working, Metal Works, Automotive Works, Ceramics, Graphics Arts and Teacher Education in Arts and Trades. Obtaining a degree in this college then, required the student to finish a six-year ladderized program which was later reduced to a five year scheme during the term of former PLM President Consuelo Blanco who felt the imperative need of the engineering graduates to constitute the country's labor pool.

Today, the College of Engineering stands committed to upholding the legacy conceived by Mayor Villegas and the late Mayor Arsenio H. Lacson by providing its present batch of Engineering students with quality education which is responsive to the needs of the time.
