The Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST) (Filipino: Pamantasan ng Nueva Ecija sa Agham at Teknolohiya), is a state university located in the province of Nueva Ecija, Central Luzon, Philippines, with its flagship campus at Cabanatuan. The university offers graduate and undergraduate courses in many specialized fields as well as vocational training programs.

The university was established in 1908 and celebrated its centennial year in 2008.

History

[edit]

The Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology started as a vocational course at the Wright Institute in San Isidro, Nueva Ecija where young Filipinos were trained in woodworking and basic telegraphy, the said vocational course lasted until 1927 when the general secondary education course was transferred to Cabanatuan.

On June 9, 1929, the school was renamed the Nueva Ecija Trade School (NETS) in accordance with Vocational Education Act 3377 of 1929. The NETS was based in San Isidro, Nueva Ecija, offering vocational opportunities to the youth of the province. The first and only vocational course being offered then was woodworking. That course was an addition to the existing secondary curriculum inherited from the Wright Institute.

To meet with the increasing demand for vocational education in province, on June 7, 1931, the trade school was transferred to Cabanatuan. The program was interrupted in December 1941 by the outbreak of the Second World War in the Pacific.

After the war, the trade school immediately reopened on September 6, 1945, and rehabilitation programs took place. The trade school continued to provide vocational and manpower training for students from Nueva Ecija and nearby provinces. On June 8, 1948, a course in dressmaking was opened and for the first time female students were admitted in the school. A few years later, a food and cosmetology course was also offered.

On May 28, 1953, the NETS was converted into the Central Luzon School of Arts and Trades (CLSAT) by the virtue of Republic Act No. 845. CLSAT was recognized as a center of manpower and vocational training for both the youth and the adults not only in the province but also for the entire Central Luzon region. CLSAT was converted into the Central Luzon Polytechnic College (CLPC) by virtue of Republic Act. No. 3998 signed on June 18, 1964, by then President Diosdado Macapagal.

Thirty-four years later, under the leadership of then University President Gemiliano C. Calling, the Bill converting CLPC into NEUST was signed by House Speaker Jose de Venecia on February 19, 1998, and was forwarded to President Fidel V. Ramos on February 24, 1998. The bill lapsed into Law on March 27, 1998, as Republic Act. No. 8612,[1] converting CLPC into a specialized university, the Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology.[2]
