UP Progressive Responsive Innovative Movement in Engineering

About the Organization

Duly-recognized Engineering-wide socio-civic & leadership organization with over 200 members handpicked as some of the best and brightest achievers in the college.

The University of the Philippines Progressive Responsive Innovative Movement in Engineering, or better known as UP PRIME is a leadership socio-civic organization and vibrant student formation that envisions a brand of leadership essential to and representative of the College of Engineering.

Through various campaigns, activities and services, UP PRIME has continually provided students with opportunities to be a part of a greater formation towards a progressive, responsive and innovative society.

How? By training students to become leaders and passing on to them the legacy of “responsible student leadership” that PRIME has ever since maintained. This is student leadership coupled with academic responsibility; in testament to the fact that as students, the primary task we have for and in the University is to fulfill our academic duties. For PRIME, an excellent student leader is always an excellent student first.

From well-established projects and events to well-developed student leaders, the University of the Philippines Progressive Responsive Innovative Movement in Engineering (UP PRIME) has continued to bear the torch of its name.

We actively participate towards progress. We respond immediately and innovatively to problems. We don't just promise, we deliver. We are UP PRIME.
