About Us

When Marinduque State University was established in 1952 as Marinduque School of Arts and Trades by virtue of Republic Act 805, the School had been operating the two-year Technical Curricula. During that year, Industrial Technology was a separate section which was headed by Mr. Respicio A. Javier. The following courses were offered at the time: Technical Automotive Mechanics, Technical Building Construction, Technical Drafting, Technical Electricity, Technical Cosmetology, Garments Trades and Technical Food Trades.

In Academic Year 1975 – 1976 the Department of Education Culture and Sports (DECS) Order No. 28 s. 1975 authorized the school to offer the four-year Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology Curriculum (BSIT).

During the term of College President Dr. Rodrigo G. Monterey Sr., a new organizational structure was created that paved the way for the merging of the two largest sections of the College: Engineering and Technology to become the School of Engineering and Technology (SET).

By AY 2005 – 2006, during the term of College President Dr. Romulo H. Malvar, Technology was separated from Engineering and became a separate School, the School of Industrial Technology (SIT) that offered a two-year craftsmanship curriculum, a three year Technician program and a four-year Bachelors’ degree.

During the term of College President Dr. Merian P. Catajay-Mani, a new organizational structure was created with the School of Industrial Technology merging with the School of Information and Computing Sciences and became known as the School of Technology (STech), but by 2020, the Industrial Technology program was again separated to become what it is today, the College of Industrial Technology.

The Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology (BSIT) program proudly embarks on a new chapter as it transitions into the Bachelor of Industrial Technology (BIndTech)—a strategic transformation that reflects both regulatory compliance and a forward-looking vision for technical education.

Effective First Semester, Academic Year 2026–2027, this transition is implemented in accordance with Commission on Higher Education Memorandum Order No. 13, Series of 2023, which outlines the Policies, Standards, and Guidelines for the Bachelor of Industrial Technology program. This initiative is further reinforced by the approval of the Marinduque State University Board of Regents through Resolution No. 76, Series of 2026.

More than a change in name, the shift to BIndTech represents a renewed commitment to delivering industry-relevant, competency-based education. The redesigned curriculum is anchored on the goal of equipping students with the practical skills and technical expertise required in today’s evolving industrial landscape. Through strengthened collaboration with industry partners, the program emphasizes hands-on training, adherence to national trade competencies, and the development of graduates who are not only knowledgeable but also field-ready industrial artisans.

As part of this evolution, key specializations have been refined to better align with industry demands. Architectural Drafting Technology now advances the former Drafting Technology track, while Culinary Technology enhances the previous Food Technology specialization. Alongside these, the program continues to provide comprehensive training in Automotive Technology, Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology, and Welding and Fabrication Technology—ensuring a broad spectrum of technical expertise for aspiring professionals.

With BIndTech, Marinduque State University strengthens its role in shaping a new generation of skilled artisans and industry practitioners—individuals who are ready to innovate, build, and lead in their respective fields.
