CORE VALUES
F – Fortitude
E – Excellence
U – Uprightness

HISTORY
The present Far Eastern University (FEU) is an offshoot of the union of the Institute
of Accountancy (founded in 1928 by Dr. Nicanor Reyes) and the Far Eastern College
(founded in 1919 by Nicanor Maronilla-Seva, Francisco Africa, Pedro Cortez, Salvador
Unson, and Vicente Favella) in the early second quarter of the 1900’s. When Dr. Nicanor
Reyes gained the controlling stock on November 5, 1933, he became its first president.
Since then, the site of the once humble cigarette factory turned into an educational
institution at the corner of Azcarraga (now Claro M. Recto) and M. Lorenzo (now Quezon
Boulevard) Streets and has produced luminaries who had distinguished themselves
in business, law, education, fine arts, architecture, engineering, nursing, and medicine.

Dr. Reyes had envisioned a university with the best facilities to offer a well-rounded
education, giving emphasis on the promotion of Philippine art and culture. Since
its inception, FEU boasts of cultural and historical vestige. Notable are the works of
national artists such as Pablo Antonio, Vicente Manansala, and Francisco “Botong”
Francisco that grace FEU’s grounds and buildings. Distinguished also were the artistic
performances especially in the 50’s and 60’s in the FEU Auditorium, which where
dubbed as the “Cultural Center of the Philippines.” For 20 years, it was the venue for
major cultural presentations like the operas La Traviata, Il Trovatore, and Carmen.
Recently, the establishment of the President’s Committee on Culture has brought
a cultural rebirth with its twice-a-month presentations of local and international
artists. Modern stage productions necessitated the overhauling of the auditorium
with state-of-the-art theatre facilities, including a wide screen and a powerful video
and computer projector.

 In 1936, the Commonwealth was two years
old and independence was promised a decade
hence. The FEU, a private education pioneer,
took stock of the emergent nation’s needs.
Among its findings was a very pressing need
for engineers and technologists to help build
the nation. It felt itself challenged and it thus
established the Institute of Technology.
An increasing demand for trained engineers
and technologists remained. With the govern-
ment’s accelerated economic recovery pro-
gram, private business establishing more and
more factories, and agriculture shifting to
mechanization, the demand for trained and
skilled personnel was greater than ever. The
Institute of Technology helped by filling the
country’s need in this respect.
In 1936, when it was founded, the Institute of
Technology initially offered a complete course
in civil engineering.
The Institute had since added complete courses
in six other major fields of technology: architecture,
chemical engineering, mechanical engineering,
electrical engineering, industrial engineering,
and chemistry. A course in geodetic engineering
was also started in 1952. However, in 1971, the
Department of Architecture was elevated
into the Institute of Architecture and
Fine Arts and took over the architecture
program; the course in chemistry was
transferred to the Institute of Arts and
Sciences in 1978.
The courses leading to the Bachelor of
Science degree in a specific branch of
engineering offered by the Institute
of Technology were similar in some respects to
those of the famed technical institutes and
universities in the United States and Europe,
such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
University of Michigan, Cornell University, and
California Polytechnic. They, however, were
oriented to suit local conditions and to fill the
needs of Philippine technological advancement.
The curricula of the Institute of Technology
were geared to prepare the students to become
highly technical yet practical experts in their
specific branch of engineering. To achieve this
end, the Institute of Technology had built a
strong and well-balanced faculty.
FEU Institute of Technology
Student Handbook 2018 Edition
It had a formidable teaching force, composed
of the country’s esteemed technological
educators and scholars, professors skilled
and experienced in the basic sciences,
trained technicians, and practicing and
consulting professional engineers.
The Institute of Technology was also
continually expanding its facilities so as
to provide its faculty and students the
most complete and most modern laboratory
in the country. It was in line with this policy
that FEU built a seven-storey Technology
Building in Manila and a building complex on
its 46-hectare Quezon City campus.
A New Technology
FEU takes pride in its relentless efforts for
academic excellence. For this reason, it conducts
a constant review of programs of major
tertiary courses. After a thorough study of
the Technology Program, the administration
decided to phase it out in favor of a computer technology
program forged with East Asia Computer Center, Inc., which
offered degrees in Computer Science in 1992.
In July 1991, SM Foundation and IBM Philippines set up Asia Pacific
Computer Technology Center (APCTC). Six months later, APCTC
collaborated with Far Eastern University (FEU) and Intelligent
Wave, Inc. (IWI) and set up a computer school, which was
subsequently called East Asia Computer Center. Later, the name
was changed to East Asia Institute of Computer Technology (EAICT).
Initially, the only degree offered was Bachelor of Science
in Computer and Information Science (BSCIS). In 1994,
EAICT started to offer the degree of Bachelor of Science
in Computer Engineering (BSCOE).
On September 30, 1998, the Commission on Higher
Education (CHED) noted the change in the name of East
Asia Institute of Computer Technology (EAICT) to East Asia
College of Information Technology (EACIT).
On February 24, 2000, EACIT was identified by CHED as a Center
of Development for Excellence (CODE) in Information Technol-
ogy Education in the National Capital Region.
In 2001, EACIT sought the approval of CHED to offer
additional courses leading to the degrees of Bachelor
of Science in Information Technology and Bachelor of
Science in Information Management. Both courses gained full
recognition in April 2004.

Engineering was under the Institute of Technology as one of the
principal programs of FEU until the Board of Directors decided to
close the Institute of Technology by not accepting freshmen in 1991.
Although it still had an enrolment of over 4,000 students, the Institute of Technology found itself
caught in a squeeze between the government’s cap on tuition fee increases and the rising costs
of providing quality education in engineering. Rather than allow a drop in quality standards, FEU
finally chose to close down the Institute in 1996.
Being one of the country’s finest universities, FEU worked to restore the scope of its academic
offerings. In 2001, the FEU administration decided to reopen and rehabilitate the defunct
technology program. This paved the way to the re-opening of the College of Engineering
that prides itself with a carefully designed curriculum, high quality instruction and
state-of-the-art laboratory and building facilities.
The College of Engineering offered Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE),
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE), Bachelor of Science in Electronics
and Communications Engineering (BSECE) and Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering
(BSIE). These engineering programs are offered in a trimestral system. A regular student is
expected to finish any of the programs in four (4) years and one (1) term. The additional one
term consists of three and a half months industry immersion.
The College of Engineering received its Government Recognitions from the Commission on
Higher Education (CHED) on April 12, 2004 to conduct and operate the four programs.
The Power of Two
In 2002, FEU acquired the controlling stock of EACIT and gained full control of the College.
In 2003, the FEU Administration took a big step in merging the College of Engineering and
East Asia College of Information Technology. The combined resources and efforts of both
Colleges resulted in the merged FEU – East Asia College (FEU—EAC) with the re-organized
vision and mission.
In 2014, FEU – East Asia College was re-named back to its roots as FEU Institute of Technology,
also known as FEU Tech.

 THE INSTITUTE SEAL
The outer ellipse is consistent with the seal of all the other schools in the FEU Group. The
images in the inner ellipse are the four components that symbolize what the Institute
represents: a book, a whirlwind, a gear, and a tongue of digital fire.

The book (or the muse) serves as the base of the structure and is also the source of
knowledge and inspiration. From the pages of the book, a mighty whirlwind forms and
boldly spins outward to spread knowledge in all directions. It then ascends towards the
highest of heavens to feed the fire of passion for invention in engineering- the gear; and
information technology- the pixelated tongue of fire.

THE iTAMARAW ICON

The iTamaraw is an adaptation of FEU’s icon, the tamaraw. The right half features
a classic tamaraw while the left half shows a modernized, high-tech tamaraw;
symbolizing a synthesis of tradition and technology.

1. The left horn in the shape of an antenna or tower symbolizes an industrial

structure.
2. The lines on the left half represent the circuitry associated with both computer
and engineering programs, signifying innovation.
3. The green and gold gradient represent the colors of the College, while black
stands for strength and determination.

APPENDIX C
FEU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY POLICY ON DRUGS
The Institute does not tolerate any individual who will attempt to introduce drugs into
the community. Thus, it specifically provides that persons found guilty of bringing in,
carrying, possessing or using of drugs or chemicals included in the list of prohibited
drugs at the NBI or prohibited under the Republic Act 9165- An Act Instituting the
Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002, repealing Republic Act no. 6425,
otherwise known as the Dangerous Drugs Act of 1972, as amended, providing
funds therefor, and for other purposes.
The above paragraph is without prejudice to the filing of the applicable criminal cases
as provided for by law.
As a measure to ensure the protection of the academic community, the Institute
adopts as a policy the following:
1. Drug testing as part of the employment process of Associates;
2. Periodic random testing for students in accordance with law; and
3. Active role in the prosecution of persons involved.
Nonetheless, the Institute is mindful of the fact that drug addiction is similar to an
illness. That is, drug users and dependents are sick people that need treatment and
support. As such, the Institute will be extending help to students and Associates
who will voluntarily come forward to seek assistance on their drug dependence or
addiction. As a form of assistance, the Institute will:
1. Assist the drug dependent in looking for the appropriate treatment center;
2. Students will be given an official leave of absence up to a year to undergo
treatment and rehabilitation;
3. After completion of treatment and rehabilitation program, students
have the oppor tunity to resume their studies;
Drug addiction is one of the biggest problems that hamper the growth of our
youth today. It is therefore a challenge to all members of the academic
community to ensure that this menace w i l l b e m i nim ized if not totally
eradicated in FEU Institute of Technology.

TO: CHED regional Directors
Heads of Private Schools, Colleges and Universities
Presidents of State Colleges and Universities
1. The fundamental law of the land requires the state through its instrumentalities, in
particular the educational agencies, to promote the physical, intellectual and social
well-being of the youth, the students. They are encouraged to go to schools of all
levels to utilize their God-given talents for self-development and, collectively, for
nation building. They are encouraged further to join all kinds of organizations that
foster camaraderie and instill brotherhood.
2. Historically, fraternities were founded to promote brotherhood and camaraderie
among groups of people, including students in colleges and universities, fraternities
and other student organizations must serve to forge not only brotherhood as the
ultimate bonding of all men and women inside and outside the confines of
universities, but must exist to preserve the value of human life. Their talents
and energies must be channeled and utilized for collective development.

3. Recent events involving fraternities tend to erode the moral values inculcated by
parents and the educational institutions. Students dedication the study, respect for
authority, observance of the rules and regulations of educational institutions are
ignored. Existing laws and other administrative issuance seem not enough to deter
some students to inflict physical and mental injuries on others and, in so many
instances, cause the loss of life of students.

4. In order to have an atmosphere of brotherhood among fraternities and other

student organizations, all edu cationa l institutions of higher lea r ning a re
encouraged to promote programs and projects that will produce responsible
students and will instill the value of human life for a productive future. The following
preventive measures are therefore suggested:

4.1 Monthly meetings of heads of fraternities in a Council of Equals.

4.2 Regular gatherings of fraternity members through sports, cultural events and
joint community projects where there are cross memberships.

4.3 Reporting of a potential conflict to the head of the fraternity as a standard

65 procedure. The head in turn will patch it up with his counterpart. 66

4.4 Internal policing by the fraternities themselves.
4.5 Long-term re-orientation of role of fraternity to move away from macho
conflicts into a society of brotherhood that stresses studies productivity,
creativity, and sense of community and nationhood.
4.6 More interaction between the School Administration and the fraternities.
4.7 Parents informed about the participation of their children in fraternities.
4.8 Use of fraternity alumni members to counsel resident members.
4.9 Fraternities be obliged to have an ethical code in their organizational vision and
objectives which should include a commitment to solve problems in a peaceful
and friendly way.
5. In order to deter violence among Fraternities the following sanctions shall be strictly
carried out :
5.1 Automatic expulsion of any fraternity member for:
A. starting or taking the offensive action that clearly provokes violence.
5.2 Sixty days suspension of all officers of a fraternity found guilty of starting action
that will provoke violence.
5.3 Suspension of guilty fraternity for one year for the first offense and permanent
ban for the next offense. of this act.
6. Higher Education institutions must fully assume authority and responsibility in
dealing with fraternities and other student aggrupations. They are enjoined to
closely monitor and supervise the enumerated preventive measures and sanctions
herein above-stated.
7. Immediate dissemination for this Order is desired.
