On its 51st year, PUPGS continues to steadfastly nurture the personal and professional development of its students through quality teaching and learning. Quality education is guaranteed in the offering of various programs in the fields of engineering, information technology, applied statistics, communication, economics, psychology, and Filipino. As a testament to this, PUPGS’ significance exceeds its own as it is the progenitor of all other graduate programs offered by the University that are now vertically articulated in their respective colleges.
Soon, PUPGS shall become a world-class center of graduate education, promoting quality programs that uphold the standards of a nationally and internationally reputable higher education institution. Towards this goal, we continuously strive to excel in the areas of instruction, research, extension and community involvement, internationalization, and administration. PUPGS has gone far witnessed by the number of its outstanding graduates who play vital roles in addressing national and global needs and challenges. But we are cognizant that there is still more to learn, more to improve, and more to achieve.
As one of our valued stakeholders, we encourage you to join us in our unremitting journey towards educational quality and excellence. It has been said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. The accreditation process is one brave step that we are now taking. We shall gladly appreciate and bring to fruition your recommendations for the continuous enhancement of our programs and services for our Sintang Paaralan.
Thank you very much!

Tagapangulo, Master ng Artes sa Filipino (MAF)
Welcome po sa mga akreditor ng AACCUP! Nagsimula po ang programang Master ng Artes sa Filipino/Master of Arts in Filipino (MAF) noong 1998. Lampas dalawang dekada na rin po ang naging pagsusumikap ng mga bumubuo sa programang ito upang palaguin at patatagin ang disiplinang Filipino sa antas gradwado sa Politeknikong Unibersidad ng Pilipinas.
Bilang Tagapangulo ng MAF sa kasalukuyan, batid ko pong naghahangad ang lahat ng mga mag-aaral na pumapasok sa programang ito ng mas malawig na edukasyon at karunungan na higit na nakatuon sa wika, kultura, panitikan at pananaliksik. Lagi ko pong ipinaaalala sa mga mag-aaral ng MAF na maging gabay sana nila ang isang linya mula sa paborito kong nobela na may pamagat na “Botchan” ng nobelistang Hapones na si Natsume Soseki na naisalin sa Filipino ng isang mahusay na tagasalin na si Lilia F. Antonio. Ang sabi sa nobela, “Ang salitang edukasyon ay hindi lang nagpapahiwatig ng pagkakamit ng karunungan. Nangangahulugan ito ng pagbabahagi ng dakila, tapat at marangal na diwa at ang pagpuksa sa mga ugaling panakaw, walang galang, at walang pakundangan.” Hinihiling ko sa lahat ng mga mag-aaral ng MAF na sana ay tuloy-tuloy ang kanilang pagsisikhay at pagtuklas ng karunungan sa ilalim ng programang ito at mangarap silang makapagtapos baon ang dangal na hinubog mula dito sa aming Sintang Paaralan sa tulong naming mga gurong laging umaagapay sa kanila.
Kaya, lagi naming isinasaisip ang linyang #MangarapSaMAF!
