On May 29, 2024, the Office of International Affairs and Linkages, in collaboration with the Office of the Chancellor, spearheaded a Planning Workshop for the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Ranking at the Office of the Chancellor Conference Room.

This significant event welcomed distinguished speakers from our sister university, MSU-IIT, notably Dr. Gaudencio C. Petalcorin, Jr., Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, and Dr. Arnold C. Alguno, Director for Research. The workshop drew participation from various key offices pivotal to our campus’s internationalization efforts.

Aligned with the Commission on Higher Education’s (CHED) vision of elevating Philippine universities to global excellence through internationalization, the workshop provided valuable insights. Dr. Petalcorin’s in-depth presentation on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) captivated attendees and shed light on crucial aspects of global impact.

Furthermore, Chancellor Dr. Elnor C. Roa expressed sincere appreciation for the workshop, emphasizing its significance in advancing MSU at Naawan’s pursuit of THE World Ranking.

Through this, the university remains committed to leveraging expert resources to bolster our internationalization initiatives further.
