A university is an educational institution designed for instruction and examination of

students in many branches of advanced learning, conferring degrees in various faculties and

often embodying colleges and similar institutions. Students now a days are choosing universities

that are popular and top in achievements in terms of sports and academic aspects. There are

universities that are high in ranking among the other universities. But what are the Biggest

Universities in the Philippines? I’ll site you some three biggest universities in the philippines.

The first one is the Central Luzon State University or the CLSU, is a state university on a

65 hectares campus located in Muñoz Nueva Ecija, Philippines. They offer courses such as in

undergraduate level like BA in Filipino, BS in Psychology, Bachelor in Elementary Education,

BS in Accountancy, BS in Agriculture, BS in Civil Engineering, BS in Meteorology, BS in

Tourism Management, and etc. They also have masteral degrees and other masteral programs

and other curricular offerings. The second one is the University of the Philippines Diliman or

simply known as UP Diliman. UP Diliman is a co-educational, public search university located

in Diliman Quezon City, Philippines. It has a total land area of 493 hectares much of this

property is utilized by the university in the form of infrastructure and research for development

and residential use or un-occupied. It has been ranked between the 60-75 bracket in the best

universities in Asia. The Commission on Higher Education identifies UP Diliman as center of

Excellence in 12 disciplines, namely information, technology, anthropology, biology, chemistry,

geology, mathematics, political science, and statistics. The last university I’ll tackle is the

Siliman University, also reffered to as SU, is a private research university in Dumaguete Negros
Oriental, Philippines. The campus is 62 hectares and the extension campus has a 465 hectares in

They are become unique and in their own way. Still, the choice of the students when will they

enter college are in their own hands and decisions. They must know where they will excel and

where they’ll knowledge and ability will hone. All universities in the philippines can help in

improving one’s ability but we can’t deny the fact that theres some state, universities and
