The innovation efforts of FEU schools—composed of FEU Alabang, FEU Diliman, and FEU Institute of Technology (FEU Tech)—were recently recognized in the latest rankings of the World’s Universities with Real Impact (WURI) Top Global Innovative Universities for 2022.
The WURI rankings notably compared universities all around the world using criteria measuring a university’s contributions to society and innovative approaches to education.
FEU Tech ranked alongside universities such as MIT, Stanford, and Harvard and placed in four major categories: #19 in Progress during the Fourth Industrial Revolution, #30 in Entrepreneurial Spirit, #37 in Crisis Management, and #44 in Student Mobility and Openness.
These categories considered a school’s ability to invest and use emerging digital technologies, support student innovation, craft an agile response during the pandemic, and continue collaboration with schools around the world.
Ready for the Fourth Industrial Revolution
Off the news of the recent WURI rankings, FEU Tech Schools are also proud to reiterate that both the FEU Tech and FEU Alabang campuses will be offering leveled-up undergraduate Bachelor of Science (BS) courses in the fields of data science, entrepreneurship, and business analytics. These programs seek to prepare fresh grads for a swiftly evolving job market, equipping them with the practical skills they need to land jobs in growing fields like tech.
The innovation-focused courses offered by FEU Tech include BS Computer Science with specialization in Data Science, BS Information Technology with specialization in Innovation and Business, and BS Information Technology with specialization in Business Analytics.
Partnerships with business
FEU Tech also recently partnered with business process outsourcing giant Accenture to initiate research and development programs on the use of 5G and Industry X technologies. The partnership is part of Accenture’s initiative to help innovation-focused local universities via an P80 million grant to strengthen programs focusing on emerging technologies, sustainability, inclusion, and diversity.
The partnership with Accenture is part of FEU Tech’s rich tradition of working with both large enterprises and startups.
