CCS HISTORY AND PROFILE

The College of Computer Studies (CCS) came to being on August 1, 2001. For almost five years since 1996, Computer Science programs had been under the College of Engineering. Similarly, the non-degree program, Associate in Computer Technology (ACT) subsisted under the same college. During the following years, Lyceum eventually offered additional IT courses in response to the growing needs for computer professionals. It added two new other courses related to the IT industry namely, Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) & Bachelor of Science in Information Management (BSIM).

This change subsequently prompted the establishment of a separate college (College of Computer Studies) to supervise all computer subjects from then on. This was also in order to comply with recent policies set by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).

The newly founded college assumed office beside the College of Engineering, located at the third floor. Mr. Julianito Bucayan became the first dean of CCS, together with his assistant Ms. Devy M. Galang. In 2002, Mr. Vicente Pijano took over the post of Mr. Bucayan, who had become the Management Information System (MIS) director by that time. Presently, the college is headed by the new dean, Mr. John Peter Abraham Q. Ruero.
