MARIANO MARCOS STATE UNIVERSITY

College of Engineering

Brief History of the University

The Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) was established on January 6,

1978 by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 1279 issued by the then President Ferdinand
E. Marcos. The decree merged the then Mariano Marcos Memorial College of Science
and Technology (MMMCST) in Batac and the Northern Luzon State College (NLSC)
in Laoag City, and integrated the college departments of the Ilocos Norte Agricultural
College (INAC) and the Ilocos Norte College of Arts and Trades (INCAT).
MMSU’s mandate is to provide advanced instruction in the arts, agricultural and
natural sciences, and technological and professional fields.
MMSU’s 300-hectare main campus is located in the heart of the City of Batac,
a peaceful young city conducive for educational and rural development. The university
also has campuses in Laoag City, and in the towns of Currimao and Dingras. MMSU
offers 66 degree programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Majority of these
programs are accredited at various levels by an evaluation body for state universities
and colleges. It is recognized by the Commission on Higher Education as Center of
Excellence (COE) in Teacher Education, and Center of Development (COD) in
Agriculture, Biology, Forestry and Information Technology Education. It has also been
chosen as one of the few National Universities for Agriculture and Fisheries Education
in the entire Philippines.
To date, MMSU has 11 academic units: Graduate School (GS), College of Law
(COL), College of Medicine (COM), College of Agriculture, Food and Sustainable
Development (CAFSD), College of Aquatic Sciences and Applied Technology
(CASAT), College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), College of Business, Economics and
Accountancy (CBEA), College of Engineering (COE), College of Health Sciences
(CHS), College of Industrial Technology (CIT) and College of Teacher Education
(CTE). These are distributed in six campuses: main campus (Batac), campus 2-
Laoag, campus 3- Laoag, campus 4-Currimao, campus 5- Dingras, and campus 6-
Paoay. The main campus houses seven academic units: COL, COM, CAFSD, CAS,
COE, CBEA, CHS; campus 2, CTE and GS; campus 3, CIT; and campus 4, CASAT.
The two other campuses, campus 5 and 6, are satellite campuses of CAFSD and CIT,
respectively.

MMSU March and Hymn

MMSU March

Dear Mariano Marcos State University

We now sing of thy real glory
We adore thee and love thee truly
Where'er we shall chance to roam
Thy sons and daughters will ever love thee
Are to thee loyal and true
Always Alma Mater dear,
Where'er we go, we'll think of thee.

Thou hast been always longing

For the welfare of thy children
And to them, thou hast devoted
Thy attention and best care
We soon shall be repaying
For the cares and kindness true
We will ever Alma Mater
Give the best in us for thee.

About the College

The College of Engineering (COE) was formerly established in 1986 although it has its beginnings
in 1982 when civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering started as curriculum offerings of the
then MMSU Institute of Technology (IT). The courses were offered both in Laoag and Batac
campuses under the supervision of the IT dean.

On May 29, 1985, the three degree programs ceased to be supervised by the IT and were called
engineering degree programs. The program’s curricula were then revised to suit the requisites of
the board of civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering and the demands of the engineering
profession as a whole.

It was in 1986 when the College of Engineering and Technology was established and engineering
students and faculty were transferred to the Batac campus.

The college was renamed College of Engineering in 1993 and more engineering courses were
offered: metallurgical, mining, computer, chemical, and electronics and communications.

With the advent of new technologies and innovations including opportunities on the field of
material science and engineering, the Ceramics Engineering program was offered as a new
program added to the existing engineering programs of COE on June 1, 1993.

In 2010, the College welcomed the transfer of Agricultural Engineering from the then College of
Agriculture and Forestry to the College of Engineering.

The college has been providing relevant and quality engineering education that produces
graduates who perform remarkably in agricultural, chemical, civil, electrical, electronics and
mechanical engineer’s licensure examinations.

Several graduates have garnered places in top 20 of their respective licensure examinations.
Likewise, several programs were awarded top performers in licensure examinations.

About the Program

BS in Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering is one of the oldest and broadest engineering field. The same
thing when MMSU Industrial Technology offered BS Mechanical Engineering (BSME)
Program as one of the first three engineering courses offered way back in 1982 before
the Con ollege of Engineering was established in 1986. It is an engineering field of study
that concerns itself with mechanical design, energy conversion, fuel and combustion
technologies, heat transfer, materials, manufacturing processes, automatic control,
product safety and reliability, renewable energy, and technological impacts to society.

The BSME program aims to produce graduates that can plan, design, manage, operate,
and maintain mechanical systems, machineries / equipment, mechanical
plants/processes, and projects; and to provide quality Mechanical Engineering education
that will allow the full development of the students to prepare them in their professional
life as a globally competitive engineers who are cognizant of their duties.

Originally, BSME program offers a 5-year course with 217 units on its old curriculum. This
is reduced to a new curriculum 4-year engineering program prepared for the K to 12
curriculum totaling to 187 units. The said new curriculum offers two track with CHED
contents notation on CAD-CAM; and on Energy Management, Conservation and Audit
Measures.

Graduates of this course will become Managers and supervisors, Safety Engineers &
Inspectors, Quality Control/Assurance Engineers, Mechanical Designers, MEPF Engineers,
R & D Engineers, Consultants, Academians, Sales Engineers, HVAC Engineers, Production
Engineers, Maintenance Engineers, Instrumentation Engineers, Mechanical Plant
Supervisors, successful businessman/entrepreneur related to Mechanical Engineering,
and others that may be employed on shore or off shore, either on land, air, or on board
water craft.

Recognition of the Department

• 2013 MMSU Presidential Award (PRAISE) on high ME board exam passing
percentage
• 2017 MMSU Presidential Award (PRAISE) on above national passing percentage
of ME Board Exam for five straight years

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Mechanical Engineering is a profession that concerns itself with

mechanical design, energy conversion, fuel and combustion technologies,
heat transfer, materials, noise control and acoustics, manufacturing
processes, rail transportation, automatic control, product safety and
reliability, solar energy, and

technological impacts to society. Mechanical engineers study the behavior of

materials when forces are applied to them, such as the motion of solids,
liquids, gases, and heating and cooling of object and machines. Using these

B.R. No. (Board Resolution Number)

basic building blocks, mechanical engineers design space vehicles,

computers, power plants, intelligent machines and robots, automobiles,
trains, airplanes, furnaces, and air - conditioners. Mechanical engineers work

OIC-Director IV
on jet engine design, submarines, hot air balloons, textiles and new
materials, medical and hospital equipment, and refrigerators and other home
appliances. Anything that is mechanical or must interact with another
machine or human being is within the broad scope of mechanical
engineering.

CONTENTS NOTED
In this track, the students will be equipped with methods and skills in
operating mechanical equipment and facility to operate in a more efficient
and effective way through energy conservation and audit practices.
