QUEZON CITY, Nov. 16 (PIA) -- The Quezon City Polytechnic University (QCPU) added another feather in its cap when 10 of its graduates passed the recent licensure examination for electronic engineers administered by the Professional Regulatory Commission (PRC).

QCPU president Salvador Enriquez Jr. said the university’s percentage ranking of 58.82 during the examination was even higher than the national passing percentage.

The 10 new licensed engineers from QCPU are: Ronnel Belizar, Kevin Jan Chiu, Mark Edwin Cleofe, Aljohn Edwin Ebacuado, Mark Espino, Jhon Roy Hallig, Ivan Maravilla, Kim Patawaran, Alvin Pelgone and Ramir San Buenaventura, Jr.

Meanwhile, two other QCPU examinees have been considered under conditional status.

The university is set to honor the new engineers for their academic performance with cash incentives and plaques of appreciation.

Aside from the board examination, QCPU graduates also scored a 100 percent passing rate for the Electronics and Communication Technician Examination.

The QCPU, established on March 1, 1994 by virtue of a city ordinance, is the only tertiary educational institution owned and managed by the city government. The university has a main campus in Barangay San Bartolome, Novaliches and two satellite campuses, which are located in Barangays Sto. Cristo and Batasan Hills.

To date, the city government has already taken steps to strengthen the stature of the QC Polytechnic as a state university by offering degree courses and modernizing school facilities.
