Awarded as the Best Organization by the Engineering Organization Excellence Award (EOEA) in 2009 and 2011, it carries on its consistent tradition of academic excellence and holistic development. UP KEM continues to build stronger tries among chemical engineering and chemistry students all over Metro Manila and Luzon through its affiliation with the Philippine Institute of Chemical Engineers – Junior Chapter Luzon and the Philippine Association of Chemistry Students.
With innovative minds and an impeccable brand of leadership, UP KEM has made itself known by organizing big-time events. AWITAN, a university-wide Christmas choral competition that started in 1965, has been one of the organization’s most prestigious events. The National Chemical Engineering Congress, the newest addition to the organization’s roster of events, has two segments: the very first National Chemical Engineering Symposium, and the 33rd Inter-University Chemical Engineering Quiz Show.
The organization and its members have also won numerous championship titles and awards. Aside from the EOEA title, UP KEM is one of the only two organizations that have won the Engineering Week Over-all Champion cup. On June 2010, the organization received the PhP 50,000 grant from Colgate Fresh-U: Say Something Fresh, a Luzon-wide idea generation competition aimed at reaching out to a community in need through a relevant and timely project.
