UST RECEIVES PROFESSORIAL CHAIR AWARD DONATION
THE Faculty of Engineering of the University of Santo Tomas will boost its research projects through the Professorial Chair Award Donation from Analog Devices Inc.
A memorandum of agreement was formally signed by key officials of the two institutions earlier this month.
A total of P1 million will be given to UST for five years for the initiative.
“ADI has established a longstanding partnership with the University, with the Department of Electronics Engineering being a beneficiary of the support,” the school said.
“The said institution also provided high-performance computational devices, staged training to students and immersion to faculty members, as well as MS-ECE scholarships,” it added.
The donation aims to empower the Faculty of Engineering to undertake research projects.
It will also pave the way for professorial chair lectures that will distinguish a faculty members’ academic excellence and recognize their service to the university.
