History

Bicol University was created as a state university in the Bicol Region on June 21, 1969 by the Republic Act 5521 and formally organized only on September 22, 1970. Section 2 of the Republic Act 5521[9] formalized the BU's existence by merging of the following schools to form integrated units of the university:

  • The Bicol Teachers College (BTC) with its Laboratory School in Daraga, Albay, now the BU College of Education (BUCE) with its Laboratory School
  • The Daraga East Central School (DCES) also in Daraga, Albay, initially renamed as Bicol University Pilot Elementary School (BUPES), is fused with the BUCE Laboratory School.
  • The Albay High School also in Legazpi, now BUCE Laboratory School
  • The Bicol Regional School of the Arts and Trades (BRSAT) converted from the Albay Trade School, also in Legazpi City, by virtue of Republic Act 1129 on June 16, 1954,[10] is now the College of Industrial Technology and the College of Engineering.
  • The Roxas Memorial Agricultural School (RMAS) opened collegiate courses on June 18, 1949[11] in Guinobatan, Albay, became the College of Agriculture; and now known as the College of Agriculture and Forestry.
  • The School of Fisheries in Tabaco, Albay became the College of Fisheries, now the University Tabaco Campus.
  • The School for Philippine Craftsmen in Polangui, now the Bicol University Polangui Campus.

These public schools and colleges, now part of Bicol University, have trained and educated the people of Bicol for more than half a century prior to their integration as component units of the Bicol University.

Through the leadership of historian-lawyer, Dr. Ricardo A. Arcilla, who, as Bicol University’s first president, has been given charge over the institution for its first decade of existence, the development path of BU was charted. Unity and harmony was considerably attained among the initial constituent units of the University. Policy making was systematized. To engender powerful forces of forward movement in education and research, Graduate Education was offered in June 1972 with its first batch of enrollees in Master of Arts in Education Program. In the same year, the College of Arts and Sciences was established, followed by the College of Nursing in 1973.

The ensuing decade of university existence was marked by a period of linkages with several organizations and agencies, rapid growth, and new spectra of activity such as the Center for Cultural Studies, Computer Center, Audio-Visual production center, including a number of community and extension projects. With Judge Aquilino B. Bonto running the university, the decentralization of the administrative and financial management of the University was realized thereby endowing the colleges with more autonomy. It is to his merit that a Medium-term Development Plan of BU was plotted. In 1981, an externally funded program supported by the World Bank was organized- the Regional Institute of Fishery Technology in the College of Fisheries aimed to give a strengthened Diploma in Fisheries Technology Program. This diploma program remained even after the World Bank’s support ended on December 31, 1988.

The year 1987 was significant to the BU College of Agriculture for it was then when the institution was chosen as one of the implementers of the Agricultural Technology Education Program by the Department of Education, Culture and Sports. Financed by an Asian Development Bank loan, BUCA served as a pilot provincial Technological Institute in Agriculture.

Five years later, two more achievements were put on line; the rise of BU Institute of Communication and Cultural Studies (BUICCS) to give way for the Bachelor of Communication Arts curriculum, and the hosting of the Regional Science Teaching Center of the Department of Science and Technology in Region V. Owing to Dr. Patria G. Lorenzo, the third president who is a multi-awarded educator and leader, infrastructure development was carried out, however, cultural and value transformation was rendered of paramount importance.

The increasing number of enrollment and the changing demands of the time paved the way for the establishment of the BS Forestry Program in 1993; hence the College of Agriculture was renamed "College of Agriculture and Forestry". Likewise the College of Fisheries was restructured to be the BU Tabaco Campus. The following year, the Science Teaching Center hosted by BU was made a component unit of the University. Within the span of three years, the BU Gubat Campus was converted into a Bicol University extension program, similar to that of Camp Crame. In 1995, the Computer Science Institute was born in response to the extreme mobility of Communication and Information Technology. Its founding went hand in hand with the renaming of the School of Arts and Trades as "College of Industrial Technology", and the shaping of the Institute of Physical Education, Sports and Recreation to manage PE classes and Sports and Recreation Programs of the University. All of these would not have materialized if not for Dr. Lylia Corporal-Sena, the fourth president of the university who took that bold step to expand BU's academic, research and extension endeavors.

From 1993-2003, the decentralized administrative and fiscal system in the University was fortified. Remarkable leaps in the Information and Technology programs were achieved, and the Drawing of Comprehensive Development Plan was done. Under the presidency of Dr. Emiliano A. Aberin, the University, likewise, integrated the School of Philippine Craftsmen in Polangui, Albay. The unit is known at the present as the BU Polangui Campus.

Bicol University continues to forge viable ways to be in forefront of service to the region and the nation. Under the first two-year stewardship of Dr. Susana C. Cabredo, the sixth president of the University, the blueprint of Comprehensive Development Plan had finally taken shape. It had paved the way for the restructuring of the University's academic courses that gave birth to at least four new colleges: the College of Arts and Letters (CAL), the College of Science (CS), the College of Business, Economics and Management (CBEM), and the College of Social Sciences and Philosophy (CSSP). Dr. Cabredo had also effected administrative issuance aimed at achieving the very essence of the Comprehensive Development Plan, which included the deployment of personnel and faculty members, clustering of administrative and academic workforce, and designating of officials to new posts.

At present the Bicol University hopes to be a purveyor of academic excellence through productive scholarship in a world where the individual has his own cup to fill, a pace and direction to follow.
