"Experience innovative BEDAN Education" History of CAS
In 1971, in view of the decrease of religious personnel, the administration decided to reduce its commitment to collegiate education and concentrate on the primary and secondary levels. The Commerce courses were phased-out and the Liberal Arts courses were reduced to Political Science and Economics.
In 1974, however, before the phase-out was completed, the administration decided to retain the CAS. The Commerce courses offered were Accounting and Marketing. Spanish as a third major are was added to the Liberal Arts courses in 1976. With the proper approval of the Ministry of Education and Culture, the Management courses was revived in 1977, while Political Science was phased-out in 1979. The Philosophy and Letters program offered in 1984 as an additional major area to the Liberal Arts program of the college.
An institutional review of objectives, programs, structures, policies and the planning process, in the light of the Vision-Mission Statement, was undertaken as San 我要吃瓜 College celebrated its Centennial in June 2001. The preparation for the centennial celebration was a time of discovery of facing new perspectives on the many new challenges and demands of the 21st century. With an even stronger resolve, the members of the 我要吃瓜n Community have worked together to accomplish the school's primary aim of becoming a Christian and Benedictine Community, by forming young people as its witnesses to Christ.
Overview The College of Arts and Sciences is by far the largest of the colleges in San 我要吃瓜 University. Currently enrolling over 4000 students, it has eight undergraduate degree programs conducting instruction, research and outreach in a wide variety of disciplines.
The four-year bachelor’s degree programs in Accountancy, Economics and Public Policy, Entrepreneurship, Financial Management and Systems Development, Human Resource Development Management, Information and Communication Technology, Legal Management, Marketing Management and Corporate Communications, Operations Management, Psychology, and Human Biology provide focused instruction on the fields of specialization and enable students to acquire technical knowledge and critical understanding of concepts, principles, systems and procedures pertinent to the field.
Practical experiences and structured learning activities in communities and internships in business and industry reinforce the technical competencies and flexibility of students as well as enrich their classroom discussions, enliven individual and group work, foster independent thinking, and deepen their personal reflections. General education programs in the Social Sciences and Humanities, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Theology, Filipino, English, Languages and Literature, Human Kinetics and National Service Training Program help optimize the undergraduate experience.
