6th Annual Research Awards

6th Annual Research Awards (ARAW 2013)

The Polytechnic University of the Philippines-College of Engineering is committed to developing a research culture in the academic sector that will contribute to the technological breakthrough in the different engineering field of specialization.  .  To realize this commitment, the PUP College of Engineering will hold the 6^th Annual Research Award (ARAW) and Young Inventors and Innovators Exhibit on March  8, 2013 at the Bulwagang Balagtas of the PUP main library.  This project is expected to contribute in establishing and developing a critical mass of students who will become future researches,  technologists, scientists and engineers who will transform  R & D into a viable technology.  With the concerted efforts of the academe, government agencies like the Department of Science and Technology, Department of Energy and the industry sector, the ARAW will serve as venue for new ideas, new researches, and scientific innovations to contribute to the production of scientific capacity building in order to help the country’s competitive advantage in line with engineering and technology researches.

With the overwhelming response of research enthusiasts from universities, industries and agencies, we felt accountable for accepting the task of setting a vibrant venue to showcase once again worthy intellectual explorations in science and technology researches.  Thus, we wish to propose as a joint project with you, the 6^th Annual Research Awards and Young Inventors and Innovators Exhibit with the theme “Mainstreaming Innovations in Engineering and Science for Sustainable Economy”.  The following are the research priority of the said competition:
