Engineering Week

History

Pre-EWOC Format

Engineering Week began as a collection of competitions and games held by student organizations of the College of Engineering. These included the following events:

Event Organizer Description Notes
Engineering Smoker Engineering Student Council The Engineering Student Association (ESA) was established in 1920 and is considered as the first student organization established in the College of Engineering. The ESA was the organization that represented students in the community, which was replaced by its subsequent alternatives like the Engineering Association Council and currently lives on as the Engineering Student Council.
Awitan UP KEM
Indakan Engineering Fraulein The Engineering Fraulein is currently defunct and was the first female-exclusive student organization in the College of Engineering. Upon it's dissolution, the UP ACES decided to continue organizing the Indakan.

Some of these events were originally intended and facilitated as university-wide competitions that allowed participants from other colleges; however, engineering organizations like the UP Industrial Engineering Club quickly became consistent main-stay participants which attracted both viewers and other participants.

The declaration of Martial Law in 1972 challenged the existence of student organizations and affected participation in the Engineering Week. Political organizations were repressed which caused the dismantlement of certain students organizations. Personalities within campus also refused participation due to general suppression of freedom within the university.

EWOC Format

The lifting of Martial Law in 1981 allowed minor improvements to student organization. Dissent grew and became more vocal as the economic crisis of 1983 was exposed, which compounded with the news of Ninoy Aquino's assassination. Student organizations slowly became shelters for discussions and organized activities.

In 1986, the Engineering Student Council transformed the entire event into a competition - by introducing the Engineering Week Overall Championship (EWOC) - to encourage participation. The UP Industrial Engineering Club was awarded the 1st EWOC after deliberately supporting all the events with their participation, and quickly established a winning streak that would last until the next decade. The new format of Engineering Week was still held on February, and continued without indication of the implications of demonstrations that today is better known as the 1st People Power Revolution. Before the end of the 80s, the engineering week was moved to December to include the Lantern Parade and other Christmas activities to the competition. The Miss Engineering competition was also introduced to further emphasize the challenges of women in the male-dominated profession of engineering.

Development

The streak of the UP Industrial Engineering Club was disrupted three (3) times during the 90s: twice by being dethroned by UP Chemical Engineering Society and once by campus violence; each leaving a profound effect on the competition.

The UP Industrial Engineering Club Era

The UP Industrial Engineering Club regained its streak in the start of the new millenia which it held for the next 20 years. The dominance of the organization often led to review of the format. Certain changes were effected to encourage participation.

In 2013, fielding multiple participants per organization were virtually disallowed in all events. Previously, many events allowed organizations to have multiple representatives, however, this allowed large organizations to field multiple representatives to secure more points. This, however, was offset by the inclusion of over a hundred day events for Engineering Week. Subsequent Engineering Weeks, however, slowly decreased the number of events and extended the celebration from one week to two weeks.

In 2014, the Engineering Week was moved to March of 2015 due to the academic shift which moved exams to December. Since then, the Engineering Week started after People Power 1 Anniversary.
