CHED MEMORANDUM ORDER NO. 015-11
| SUBJECT | : | Extension of the Designation of Centers of Excellence and Centers of Development in Science and Mathematics |
In accordance with the pertinent provisions of Republic Act No. 7722 otherwise known as the "Higher Education Act of 1994" and pursuant to CEB Resolution No. 122-2011 dated June 13, 2011 and for the purpose of harmonizing quality assurance projects of the Commission, including that of centers of excellence and centers of development [COE/COD] projects, the designation of COEs/CODs in Science and Mathematics is hereby extended. AHDcCT
Background:
In 2006, the Commission approved the designation of forty [40] higher education institutions [HEIs] as COEs/CODs in Science and Mathematics for a period of five [5] years. The designation of the identified centers shall expire by July until September 2011. Considering that some centers have yet to receive from the Commission the remaining balance of the COE/COD Funds as approved under the CHED COE/COD Project and considering further that on-going activities for scholarship programs, faculty development programs and research projects will be disrupted and discontinued due to the expiration of the term of designation of these centers, the Commission deemed it proper to extend the designation of the COEs/CODs in Science and Mathematics until such time that the harmonization of quality assurance on COEs/CODs has been completed and that new COEs/CODs are identified.
The following HEIs and programs are hereby extended as centers of excellence/centers of development in science and mathematics:
