Circle of Industrial Engineering Majors

UP Circle of Industrial Engineering Majors

The University of the Philippines Circle of Industrial Engineering Majors (UP CIEM) is an academic organization established on November 23, 1976 by a group of students from the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research, College of Engineering at the University of the Philippines, Diliman. UP CIEM was initially formed as a response to what they felt was a need for an academic organization that can cater to their needs as IE students. Since then, UP CIEM has grown, over the years, from a fledging organization to a force to be reckoned with, not only in academics but in sports, social activities, and leadership as well. The business of UP CIEM never falls short of the foundations of Industrial Engineering: effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity.

The organization, has but one vision for its members, that is to notice – that it should be more than a collection of people; to realize – that being a member of CIEM, one has the opportunity to explore the boundaries of their personality and become an even better person; and lastly, to be humble – not one that bows their head and keeps their opinion to themselves, but one who has dignity and is able to stand and lead a crowd without having to step on another person.

With 44 years of significant existence in the UP College of Engineering, UP CIEM chooses no other path but to advance excellence in the grandest manner. UP CIEM remains true to its foundation, providing an organization of support, assistance, and relationships to the students. More than being an organization, UP CIEM continues to be the family of camaraderie and trust for the Industrial Engineering student body and the sanctuary of excellent Industrial Engineers for the nation’s future.

One Circle. One Family.

Events

IESHIKAWA

IEshikawa is an annual nationwide Industrial Engineering event offered by University of the Philippines Circle of Industrial Engineering Majors (UP CIEM). This event aims to provide service to the Industrial Engineering community by serving as an alternative avenue for continuous growth and learning. IEshikawa aims to harness the skills and knowledge of IE students regarding various IE concepts.

Throughout the years, this event has produced high quality event programs and workshops that exhibit and promote the true spirit of Industrial Engineering. Through the Plenary Talks, Workshops, Ambassador Program, Quiz Bees, and Case Study Competitions held by IEshikawa, this event has certainly nurtured every IE student it has come into contact with, in making them future-ready.

On its 15th installment, IEshikawa comes back virtually to delve into the world of E-commerce - going from Bricks to Clicks. Learn more about Engineering the E-commerce Landscape through this year’s IEshikawa!

ANNIVERSARY WEEK

The annual celebration of UP CIEM’s foundation on November 23, 1976, Anniversary Week is a culmination of everything the organization has accomplished through the years. This week-long event is divided into four parts: Event Launch, Members’ Week, Charity Event, and Anniversary Party. These set of events aim to give tribute to the organization, reunite and strengthen the bond of all CIEMers, and give back to various communities outside the organization.

Now on its 44th year of establishment, UP CIEM sets sail to conquer new frontiers, defying boundaries.

IEMPACT

IEmpact, formerly known as LET’s Do It, is UP CIEM’s corporate social responsibility arm that aims to improve the status of communities through collective sustainable contributions. In the past, UP CIEM has helped a community called Isla Pulo by improving the community’s livelihood and education, a project that made our organization a national finalist in the 2015 Ten Accomplished Youth Organization (TAYO) Awards.

For this academic year, IEmpact hopes to contribute once again to the community by raising funds for our partner beneficiaries through a 2-day webinar for both high school students and the UP community.

BOUNCE and BOUNCE BaK

Short for Be One Under Nakaka-sayang CIEM Event, BOUNCE is a series of different physical fitness sessions and sports clinics organized by the Internal Affairs Committee that promotes physical health to the resident members.

BOUNCE BaK, on the other hand, focuses on talks and workshops that promote emotional and mental welfare among the members of the organization.

REVIEWS AND TUTORIALS

As an academic organization, the members’ academic affairs are being maintained at a high standard through reviews and tutorials held by the CIEM Mentors’ Guild. Through this, members are able to learn from their co-members regarding lesson discussions, and the mentors are able to harness their communication and teaching skills.
