College Goals
The College of Engineering and Computer Studies (CoECS) was created following the conversion of Pampanga Agricultural College into Pampanga State Agricultural Univeristy (PSAU) on January 13, 2015. By virtue of Board Resolution No. 26-2015, the Institution of Engineering and Computer Studies (IECS) was renamed to College of Engineering and Computer Studies (CoECS).
Three relatively large departments contitute the College, formost of which is the Department of Resource Engineering and Agricultural Mechanization which originally started back in 1984 by virtue of Board Resolution No. 84-164. This department was created in response to the increasing demand for competent agricultural engineers. Then came the Department of Computer Studies and Automation(DCSA), which started as a collaboration endevour of the then PAC with ACE Computer Institute in 2001 as per Board Resolution No. 01-27. After six years of operation under the ACE Computer Institute, the managment of DCST was turned over to PAC upon the termination of their contract. And in response to the global competitiveness in the field of engineering, another program was established on March 22, 2013, with the offering of Bacherlor of Science in Geodetic Engineering under the Department of Geodetic Engineering, as approved by virtue of Board Resolution No. 13-09.
CoECS Goal:

- Department of Computer Studies and Automation:
- To equip the students with highly competitive theoretical, conceptual, and technical skills in the globally comprehensive e-learning environment;
- To train the students and provide them with a variety of career and technical education programs in the field of information technology and allied fields that will prepare them for employment in the current business, industry, and service sectors;
- To provide enhanced IT educational training through the development of partnerships that promote and support economic development and service to the community;
- To inculcate among students and environment that foster high ethical standards, openness, trust, respect, and fairness among all members of the academic community;
- To provide learning opportunities for cultural enrichment and personal development; and
- To promote awareness of the importance of computer technologies and e-learning with other field of studies such as agriculture, business, education, and other fields of endeavor.
Curricular Programs

PSAU CoECS OBE Framework
- Department of Resource Engineering and Agricultural Mechanization:
- Bachelor of Science in Agricultural and Bio system Engineering (BSABE)
- The Bachelor of Science in Agricultural and Bio system Engineering is a 4 year course designed to produce graduates who possess knowledge, skills, and attitudes in the application of engineering science and designs to the processes and systems involved in the sustainable production, post-production, and processing of safe food, feed, fiber, timber, and other agricultural and biological materials; the efficient utilization, conservation, and management of natural and renewable resources; and development of natural and renewable resources; and development of climate change mitigation measures in order to enhance human health in harmony with the environment. Agricultural and Bio systems (AB) consist of crops, poultry, livestock, fisheries and aquaculture resources, forestry and other plants, new and renewable energy, wastes, and natural resources, and climate.
BSABE Program Outcome
By the time of graduation, the students of the program shall have the ability to:
- apply knowledge of mathematics and science to solve Agricultural & Biosystems (AB) engineering problems;
- design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data;
- design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints, in accordance with standards;
- function in multidisciplinary and multi-cultural teams;
- identify, formulate, and solve complex problems;
- understand professional and ethical responsibility;
- communicate effectively complex AB engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large;
- understand the impact of AB engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context;
- recognize the need for, and engage in life-long learning;
- know contemporary issues;
- use techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for AB engineering practice;
- know and understand engineering and management principles as a member and leader of a team, and to manage projects in a multidisciplinary environment; and
- understand at least one specialized field of ABE practice.
Program Educational Objective
After 3-5 years, the graduates of the BSABE program shall:
- Provide Leadership in planning, implementing, and monitoring ABE projects and programs;
- Occupy supervisory positions in private and public organizations; locally and internationally;
- Own and/or manage ABE-based enterprises;
- Pursue advance studies in ABE education and emerging related fields; and
- Occupy responsible positions in ABE education
- Department of Geodetic Engineering:
- Bachelor of Science in Geodetic Engineering (BSGE)
- BSGE is a five-year degree program offered on a semestral basis. It provides knowledge, skills and relevant experience to students in the fundamentals of surveying and mapping work, geodesy, remote sensing, geographic information systems and oceanography. It also focuses on the laws of public lands and natural resources, land registration laws, obligations and contracts and professional ethics.
- Department of Computer Studies and Automation:
- Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT)
- The BSIT is a four-year degree program offered on a semestral basis. This is the study of the utilization of computers and computer software to plan, install, customize, operate, manage, administer and maintain information technology infrastructure.
