Public, private and government institutions of today operate in an environment characterized by intense competition, constant change and a strong customer focus. Considering today’s business environment, there is a strong need in all sectors and at all levels of the economy to apply engineering principles throughout the enterprise. The Department of Industrial Engineering of the University of the Philippines Los Baños recognized this as an opportunity to expand its horizons and networks and at the same time serve its core functions of research, instruction and extension. Thus in 2012, the MSEP was instituted. Several projects and services have since been offered to the university, and other public and private institutions.
The POPLAW program had its modest beginnings in 1977. A pilot project involving several grassroots organizations was conducted to develop awareness of the various human rights guaranteed by Philippine law as an instrument for the enforcement and implementation of human rights.
