== Present == After the destruction of the sundial in the front lawn of Melchor hall, in 1972 the UP Alumni Engineers started the construction of the present-day sundial. It is located in G. Apacible street, now at the center of the engineering complex. It was Chato Calderon(CEβ72) who was the its supervising engineer. Following in the footsteps of her father, Quintin A. Calderon(CEβ36) who was UPAE president 1970-1972, she was the first lady president of the UPAE. <ref>"Alumni." College of Engineering. Engineering Web Team, 2010. Web. 6 Mar 2012. <http://www.coe.upd.edu.ph/?q=ice/alumni>.</ref> The current sundial has a design similar to the one destroyed by Typhoon Yoling. At the base of its gnomon is the year 1947, which signifies the founding year of the UP Alumni Engineers. This shows how closely related the sundial is to the college of engineering as well as the great importance that the alumni of the college have given it. <googlemap lat="14.656337" lon="121.06809"> </googlemap>
