Inspired by the handbook, Journeying with Communities: A Community Engagement and Organizing Handbook for University Extension Workers a handbook published by the 六合彩直播开奖 Graduate School Center for Continuing Professional Education and Development, SIMBAHAYAN, and the Commission on Higher Education; the CCSFP President, Atty. Gloria J. Victoria-Ba帽as, CPA, DPA, CESO V extended her invitation to the team. Through this initiative, the Local University and College (LUC) hoped to be enlightened with the processes they need to undertake in achieving meaningful linkages with the various
sectors of their local government unit through their Research and Extension Services.

On the first day, Atty. Victoria-Ba帽as warmly welcomed everyone and highlighted the importance of listening to the voices of the people. This was immediately followed by the discussion of Community Engagement and Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) facilitated by Asst. Prof. Alipao. He emphasized the difference between extension services with community engagement in which the former present communities as helpless and in need of external assistance which puts the more knowledgeable in power while the latter believes that people鈥檚 empowerment, participation, and collective action are crucial when it comes to positive social change. Another point discussed was the Quadrants of Community Engagement by HEIs. These were Quadrant I: Research Partnerships, Quadrant II: Civic Engagement, Quadrant III: Continuing Education and Consultancy, and Quadrant IV: Civic Scholarships. The day ended with a workshop on Qualitative Self-Assessment Rubric for Institutionalizing Community Engagement in Higher Education developed by Andrew Furco. Participants were given time to assess their institution in terms of philosophy and mission of community-engagement, faculty support and involvement in community engagement, student support and involvement in community engagement, community participation and partnership, and institutional support for community engagement.

On the second day, Moreno explained Community Organizing specifically its definitions, interrelationship with community development, the seven principles, and eight basic steps of community organizing. Alipao also challenged the participants to formulate a community organizational plan based on three scenarios: (1) a partnership with a basic educational institution, (2) a partnership with a faith-based organization, and (3) a new partnership.

The two-day event concluded with a message of appreciation and insights from CCSFP鈥檚 Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Melanie V. Briones and the Research and Extension Director Dr. Melanie Junio. Alipao also shared his hopes that through this workshop-training, the CCSFP will continue to strengthen the institutionalization of their community engagement.

The workshop-training was actively participated by 32 participants composed of administrators and faculty members.

During his talk titled 鈥淟iving A Life of Moral Integrity In A Culture of Corruption,鈥� the molecular biologist, who is a moral theologian as well, attempted to lay down the possible roots and examples of this exploitation in Filipino society. He even proposed a potential definition of corruption since, according to Austriaco, only the acts deemed corrupted make up the definition. He added that as individuals, Filipinos tend to articulate the common good for why people do things a certain way. He then gave examples of delineating this with individual good in the different professions.

Central to this discussion is the Filipinos鈥� view on the family and how this supposed basic unit of society, when not appropriately ordered within a person鈥檚 priority, could lead to a disposition for corruption, which is the case in most local government units that are ruled only by a particular family. Even if corruption is more apparent in government transactions, Austriaco underscored that tracing its origins was meant to examine the individual鈥檚 capacity to prevent this from happening in their immediate surroundings, no matter the duty. He added that this initial study is not yet meant for policy or law-making.

According to the Dominican priest, he had encountered corruption and mitigation of various offices when he returned to the country recently to establish a world-class laboratory for a yeast-based COVID-19 medication.

In trying to extract why the Filipinos still lean towards corruptible acts, in addition to what Austriaco cited from University of Maryland professor Robert Nelson鈥檚 paper that the Spanish and Catholic colonial past of the country is a factor for having this 鈥渃ulture,鈥� he mentioned that there are deep psychological inclinations in each individual. Naming pakikisama (sense of belongingness), hiya (shame), and utang na loob (debt of gratitude) as some of the Filipino characteristics that bring intense emotions that could lead to prioritizing the wrong kind of good in a given situation.
Fr. Austriaco believed that this would be challenging for the Filipino to forget or put aside the family or any close-knit group because of the strong familial sense. He related this with St. Thomas More鈥檚 famous last words, 鈥淚 die the king鈥檚 good servant, but God鈥檚 first,鈥� that the Filipino will be martyred for this.
As a priest, Austriaco emphasized that giving in to these inclinations is an act of forgetting God and the common good and leads to hurting the poorest of the poor.
The audience, which includes students from the Political Science and Behavioral Science programs, among others, raised their questions and reactions on the effects and uses of this study for good governance in the future.

The St. Thomas More Lecture Series was first envisioned by Ophelia Alcantara Dimalanta and Piedad Guinto Rosales, literature stalwarts of the University, to honor the patron saint of the Faculty of Arts and Letters in 1968. Since then, trailblazers in different fields like university presidents, business and industry leaders, clergy members, national artists, supreme court justices, senators, a vice president, and two Philippine presidents have graced the event to speak about the most critical issues of the time.
This year鈥檚 edition of the lecture series is not just a return to form for the college but a way of gearing up to celebrate its 60th founding anniversary.

Ong delivered a 20-minute presentation titled, 鈥淐hallenges of Engineering Graduates Facing the Current and Impending Global Economy鈥� with the main theme: 鈥淭o Reduce the Readiness Gap 鈥� Engineering Focus.鈥� In his discussion, he included some pointers that put together his decades-long experiences from the academe and the manufacturing industry.

The 13th IEOM Society International Conference was a unique conference that provided a forum for academics, researchers, and practitioners from various industries and institutions to exchange ideas and share recent developments in the field of industrial engineering and operations management. One of the highlights of the conference was the presentation by 38 speakers from eight panels on topics such as Global Engineering Education (GEE), Industry 4.0, Diversity and Inclusion Panel sponsored by Ford Motor Company, Women in Industry and Academia, Industry Solutions, Lean Six Sigma, Human Factors, and Global Supply Chain Management (GSCM).
In the same conference, Ong’s Undergraduate Research advisory group was named as the first winner of the Undergraduate Research Competition (Onsite) during the Competition Winner Ceremony conducted via Zoom. The research was titled ID 670 鈥淯se of Taguchi Method-Based Design of Experiments (DOE) in the Optimization of the Drilling Parameters of Structural A572 Steel.鈥� The IEOM received 700 papers/abstracts from 53 countries, and after a thorough peer review process, approximately 450 were accepted. The program included many cutting-edge topics in industrial engineering and operations management. It is noteworthy that 六合彩直播开奖 IE emerges in the most number of winning research presentations per track.

The conference tackled Global Engineering Education (GEE) issues acknowledging the fact that there are different levels of preparedness among engineering graduates from the different parts of the world. One of the main themes discussed was how to reduce the readiness gap of engineering graduates worldwide. Special focus was given to graduates of Industrial Engineering and Manufacturing Engineering including Engineering Management.
In his presentation Ong explained that, “The challenge (faced by HEIs) is the need to focus on delivering more graduates in areas of industry and community priority, and work more closely with industry to ensure graduates have the job ready skills and experience they will need in a challenging labor market.鈥� Ong emphasized that 鈥淭he gap between the HEIs and the job market lies in the skills and technological know-how where HEIs need to learn, be updated on, and be trained for (for its graduates) to be job ready.鈥� This, he emphasized, is more prevalent in the engineering and technology labor market, where the gap grows with advancement of technology. Most universities, he said, are conventional, thus, the new advancement is not adapted and assimilated in parallel with the technology dynamics.

For graduates to be job ready, Ong highlighted the need for undergraduate internship, preferably when the students are on their third year level. 鈥淭he 鈥榡ob ready graduate鈥� elements, according to Ong must be incorporated into the various phases of the students鈥� academic experience to create the needed readiness impact.” He also detailed the responsibilities of the university, government, and industry.

Ong discussed and explained the key objectives that deal with this reform package built on five key principles such as Agility, Focus, Innovativeness, Informed, and Efficiency for job ready graduates. He added the three main dimensions on which HEIs and labor market rests: 1) knowledge and skills that HEI transfers to graduates that the latter feed back into the labor market, 2) legitimization of credentials that serve as signifiers to employers and enable them to 鈥榮creen鈥� prospective future employees, and 3) enrichment of personal and cultural attributes, known as 鈥榩ersonality.鈥� However, these three inter-linkages have become increasingly problematic.

Ong likewise expounded why it is difficult for HEIs to integrate and fill the gaps citing the following as expressed by educators: lack of time, lack of resources, and lack of expertise.

Most hiring managers, according to Ong, believe that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will impact the types of skills their companies need. Discussing Education Industry 4.0, he explained why educational institutions need curriculum 4.0, and how educational institutions can prepare students for Education 4.0 and build students鈥� digital skills. He emphasized the need to align industry requirements with education.

In the final part of his presentation, Ong highlighted the achievements of the 六合彩直播开奖 Faculty of Engineering in terms of local and international accreditations and how it relates to the rankings and ratings of the University.

六合彩直播开奖 IE Department Laboratory supervisor and full-time faculty member Engr. Yoshiki Kurata, PhD, CIE, was also a panel speaker on Human Factors. Ong, a sought-after speaker, recently served as a panel discussant and conference plenary speaker at the Philippine Normal University Quality Assurance Forum and at the 六合彩直播开奖 Simbahayan Bartolome de las Casas Research Conference 2023.
