About Us

Founded in 1983 as the College of Technician Education and Technology, we became the College of Technology (CT). Our mission is to deliver top-tier tech education in sync with the Philippines’ industrial progression. Since starting with a two-year Diploma of Industrial Technology, we’ve expanded our programs, including the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology (BSIndTech) launched in 2021.

In 1990, we adjusted our BIT curriculum to match workforce demands, elevating our regional influence. With an eye on the tech industry’s needs, we’ve introduced programs like the Master of Technology in 1995 and the Bachelor in Computer Technology. By 1999, we were offering the Master of Vocational Education. Our CT program has built strong industry partnerships, ensuring our graduates are globally competitive.

Our dedication to research, industry collaboration, and meeting high standards makes us a standout in regional tech education. Adapting to industry shifts and emphasizing excellence, we provide robust BSIndTech specializations and master’s programs.

Mandate

The College of Technology (formerly College of Technician Education and Technology) was established in 1983 with a mission to fulfill society’s requirements, that is, to train and develop middle level manpower through technical education geared towards Philippine Industrialization.

It started offering the Diploma of Industrial Technology, a two-year technical program on a pilot basis prior to its adoption the following year. The DIT curriculum was eventually revised in 1986 giving way to the offering of the Diploma of Technology, a three-year technical program. The Bachelor of Industrial Technology (BIT) was subsequently offered in the same year. 

In 1990, the college began attuning its program offerings to meet manpower demands of current and emerging occupations at the technical and professional levels. The Bachelor of Industrial Technology (BIT) curriculum was revised to include two options namely: technology teaching and industrial technology. The program made the College to its present position of leadership and influence in technology education in the region.

To meet technological advancement that continuously demand for highly qualified technicians and professionals, the College further honed its capability by offering the Master of Technology in 1995. This was followed by the offering of the Master of Industrial Technology through the Mindanao Advanced Education Project (MAEP) in 1997. In the same year, the Bachelor in Computer Technology was offered to cater to the demands of infotech-related occupations.

To meet the demands of professionals, technologists and instructors of vocational and technology programs, the offering of Master of Vocational Educational was approved by the BOR of this University in June 1999. The College of Technology is located at Obrero Campus, Davao City, occupying a building distinct and separate from the other academic units.
