Cebu Board Exam topnotchers

[larry lozano]

---

State colleges and universities are expected to excel specially those with substantial budget from the national government. Each student in State colleges and universities like UP are subsidized by the government thus they are generally called as "Iskolar ng Bayan". As such they must prove their worth after passing selective admission tests and interview, maintaining the required passing average per semester without failure! As well doing research study as thesis by pairs only, special projects and community extension service. Such as UP Diliman and Los Banos their professors are all PhDs or doctorate degree holders from abroad, state-of-the-art equipment and machine tools in mechanical engineering laboratories and workshops, as the saying goes "those who have much, much is expected!" Adhorem Gloriam Die!

Please visit the National Engineering Center, UP Diliman. You'll be impressed and amazed with their State-of-the-Art and High Tech Laboratories, Workshop, Research & Development, Technology Business Incubator Facilities with Billions Pesos investment from UP, DOST, DTI and foreign grants JICA Japan, GTZ Germany, AusAid Australia, British Council, etc.

These facilities are used for bachelors, masters and doctorate programs in engineering. For Mechanical Engineering, Materials Engineering and Manufacturing Engineering programs, they have the following high tech and state-of-the-art instruments, machine tools such as;

Material Testing & Characterization : X-ray Diffraction spectrometer, Induction Coupled Plasma Mass spectrometer, Tunneling Electron Microscope, Atomic Force Microscope, Robotics driven Universal Testing Machine, Laser Particle Size analyzer, Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer, Scanning Thermo-Gravimetric analyzer, Infrared hydrocarbon analyzer (for polymers, carbon based materials), etc.

Machine Tools : 5D Computer Numeric Controlled (CNC) Machining Centers (3 units), 5D CNC Coordinate Measuring Machine (dimensional analysis & calibration), CNC Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) Wire-cut and Die Sinker, CNC Plasma-Cutting and Plasma Welding machines, Numeric Controlled (NC) Diecasting and Investment Casting Furnaces, NC Heat Treatment Furnaces, Robotics Tooling system, CAD / CAM Workstations (30 units).

Imagine... A BS Education curriculum where from 2ndyear - 4thyear ang topic pirme kay board exam questions, neglecting the principles and skills in teaching.

Or a BS Accountancy curriculum... nga puros pang board exam ang topic kada subject.

Wala na gebuhat sa 3 cebu based engineering schools kay kabalo man sila sa outcome... ma uwaw ang school sa ilang mga alumni.

To Mr. Scott Bernard nganu ikaw may ma problema kung mao na ang teaching method sa UC buhaton or e adapt kha na ninyo sa inyong school aron maka topnotchers pod mo tawn oy...Nagpaila kalang jud sa imo pagka bitter kung asa ka nga skol. Kung kamo pa cguro nag top wla kay reklamo. D lang ninyo madawat nga lupigon jud mo sa UC....Peace!!!

UC Tops Again...

To Mr. Scott Bernard nganu ikaw may ma problema kung mao na ang teaching method sa UC buhaton or e adapt kha na ninyo sa inyong school aron maka topnotchers pod mo tawn oy...Nagpaila kalang jud sa imo pagka bitter kung asa ka nga skol. Kung kamo pa cguro nag top wla kay reklamo. D lang ninyo madawat nga lupigon jud mo sa UC....Peace!!!

Wa man ko nagproblema... Kay dugay naman ko sa industry... Kung ganahan ka maka hibaw sa reality... Pag research sa mga recently naka pasar ug Mechanical Engineers nga graduate sa UC... pag tabulate if asa sila trabaho ron. Whether ang imong pag tabulate scientific or merely question2x lang sa FB or acquaintances.

Again, I aknowledge ang mga topnotchers sa UC, brayt jud sila . Ang alaot katong mga normal board passers or mga igo2x ra nakapasar. The reality is... bisan pangutan on nimo ang mga freshly licensed mechanical engineers, deep inside incomplete pa gehapon sila kay lack of good technical foundation. Sometimes license is not enough para ma successful ka sa work, especially being an engineer.

The other 3 cebu based engineering universities (USJR, CIT, USC) kay formidable jud ug engineering background... Nag follow sila sa normal curriculum sa engineering.

Advice or comment langni nako sa side sa UC Mechanical Engineering Department... My criticism is not applicable to other departments in UC kay some of them are excellent like the Maritime Department.

[SemUnderscore]

OT:

Not to underestimate UC Mechanical Engineering, but their curriculum is based on Actual Board Exam, even 2nd year BSME students are focused on Past Board Exams, neglecting the true essence of Mechanical Engineering design.

I would bet that these UC topnotchers do not know how to operate a Universal Testing Machine, Orsat Gas Analyzer, Bomb Calorimeter... and even design a centrifugal pump out of nothing.

These weakness should be taken for consideration by the UC Administration.... Job interviews are not always answerable by letter A to E.

Abi kog ako ray nakabantay ani. Naa pd usa ka state university here sa Cebu na nag implement in.ani na style sa curiculum sa civil engineering. Murag boardexam-oriented curiculum ba. As early as 2nd year, perme na pa solveon silag past board exam review items. Hangtod nana sa ilang 5th year. Nya naa pd uban students na pasudlon pd og review center as early as 3rd year college para lang mu top gyd. Mao toh ig review na, ig pre-board exams sa mga review centers, dagko kaau jd kuha kay halos memorize naman unsaon pag solve sa mga past-board exam items or worst ang mga answers nalay na memorize kay sa cge nag balik2 answer hehehe. Anyways, maau gyd nang mu top sa board exams. Pero ang katong mga average students ang ma apektohan in.aning styla sa curiculum gd. hehehe

Mao nang reason... daghang mga licensed engineers malupigan na sa mga vocational courses like CITE in terms of technical knowledge. While ubang universities nag focus ra pang board exam, ang mga technical schools nag teach na nuon sa ilang students ug engineering application skills.

If you might have noticed, naay mga companies local and abroad, "Engineer" ang designation pero vocational / technical degree ra ang nahuman.

Anyway, I'd like to end my comment... I already made my point. It is the company's decision who or from what school to hire.

It is either you are still a student or a fresh graduate. Tsk. tsk.

Example, kung ang applicant sa trabaho cannot even explain a technical and practical concept nga expected dapat mahibaluan sa isa ka engineering graduate, of course, dili gyud na siya ma hire. Ang hiring process kay usually naay technical skills interview, so basin masangit ngadto, dili na kadayon sa next phase.

Or let us consider nga nakapasar ug nakasulod sa trabaho... In actual work, dili man tingali na puros theory. Dili na pwede sige lang ka basa libro. It would come handy if naa na kay background kung unsaon. Dili ra ballpen, calculator ug papel ang dala sa isa ka trabahante, nya dili na pud multiple choice.
