MISSION
a) The mission of Mapa Institute of Technology is to disseminate, generate, preserve and apply scientific,
engineering, architectural and IT knowledge.
b) The Institute shall, using the most effective means, provide its students with professional and advanced
scientific and engineering, architectural and information technology education through rigorous and upto-date academic programs with ample opportunities for the exercise of creativity and the experience of
discovery.
c) It shall implement curricula that, while being steeped in technologies, shall also be rich in the humanities,
languages and social sciences that will inculcate ethics.
d) The Institute shall advance and preserve knowledge by undertaking research and reporting on the results
of such inquiries.
e) The Institute, singly or in collaboration with others, shall bring to bear the world's vast store of
knowledge in science, engineering and other realms on the problems of the industry and the community
in order to make the Philippines and the world a better place.

MISSION

PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

1. To provide students with a solid foundation in mathematics, basic
sciences, physics, and general chemistry and their application to
engineering, architecture, and other related disciplines;
