The College of Engineering and Architecture celebrated a significant milestone by marking an important step for our aspiring engineers and architects with the Hard Hatting and Pinning Ceremony 2024, held on June 6, 2024, at the Gymnasium, Urdaneta City University.
The event formally started with the entrance of guests, faculty, staff, engineers, architects, advisers, and, of course, the 3rd-year architecture and engineering students.
The opening remarks were delivered by Engr. Lorena E. Angulo, the Dean of the College of Engineering and Architecture. Her speech was full of inspiration as she mentioned that it was the first hard hatting and pinning ceremony at the university, highlighting the hard work of the students.
Dr. Josephine S. Lambinicio, Ed.D., the UCU Vice President for Academic Affairs, delivered her inspirational message emphasizing the importance of independence and time management.
The event continued with a message from the guest speaker, Engr. Rhandel O. Zamora, MSME, LPT, the CEA OJT Coordinator. He shared his experiences, discussed the importance of on-the-job training (OJT), the right attitude and knowledge, and how OJT can help students succeed in their chosen fields.
Everything seemed surreal as the hard hatting, pinning, and awarding of certificates to the 3rd-year students of Bachelor of Science in Architecture, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering took place.
As the ceremony came to an end, the message of the day began to resonate; it was truly a day of celebration, reflecting the hard work and sacrifices of every student. This is not an end nor a beginning, but a testament to the phrase, "malayo pa, pero malayo na."
The event concluded with the closing remarks from Ar. Raymund Dulla UAP.
