Basic information and contact details for the University of the Philippines
The University of the Philippines is a network of seven universities and one autonomous college scattered across the island nation. Many of its constituent universities have more than one campus of their own.
UP Diliman, 10km north east of Manila, is comfortably the largest, boasting as many as half of UP’s students over the years.
UP Manila, in the heart of the nation’s capital, specialises in health sciences, as the successor to the Philippine Medical School, founded in 1905. Manila is one of the largest, most cosmopolitan and most frenzied cities in Asia, buzzing with nightclubs, lively restaurants and bars.
The main focuses of UP Los Baños, south east of Manila, are forestry, agriculture and environmental studies. It has a strong bioengineering and plant breeding legacy and also owns the 10,500-acre Mt. Makiling Forest Reserve
Established in 1995, UP Open University, the distance learning leader which runs a range of online courses for home and overseas students, has three faculties, 10 learning centres and 19 testing centres on several of the Philippines’ 7000 islands.
UP Visayas takes a special interest in fisheries and marine sciences, being situated on the south coast of Panay Island.
UP Mindanao, in the far south of the country, puts extra emphasis on architecture and biotechnology programmes.
The newest university in the chain, UP Baguio, founded in 2002, enjoys a reputation as a national leader in sciences, mathematics and humanities.
UP’s autonomous college, UP Cebu, used to be part of UP Visayas but became independent in order to focus on business and IT courses.
UP is largely seen as one of the best Filipino universities in national rankings and among the top institutions in Asia.. Recent improvements include academic reputation and international faculty ratio.

The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Sydney is the oldest and one of the most comprehensive of its kind in Australia. The Faculty remains proud of its past while focused on the future. The Faculty's distinctiveness lies in the depth and breadth of its disciplines, with its many research and teaching strengths earning it a deserved reputation for excellence nationally and internationally. The Faculty's research is driven by the pursuit of multidisciplinary knowledge that benefits Australia and the wider world. In 2025 we welcomed two new flagship centres, the Centre for AI, Trust and Governance, which advances responsible AI development through multidisciplinary research, fosters public trust, and informs policy decisions in complex regulatory environments; and the Contemporary Inequalities Centre, which brings together multidisciplinary expertise to pursue collaborative, problem-driven research, aiming to respond to emerging social and economic challenges to build the evidence base needed to shape new policy responses.

Priorities going forward are the implementation of key initiatives as part of the second phase of our Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences 2032 strategy; the development of leadership capabilities in FASS; enhancing our external engagement activities and connections with industry, community and government, and ensuring the safety, health, and well-being of all staff and students.
