The year 1995 marked the offering of its first doctoral program - Doctor of
Philosophy in Mathematics (Ph.D. Math). It produced its first Ph.D. graduate in 1999.
Through the years, the School of Graduate Studies grew by and large as it offered

Rationale
Globalization and the technology revolution have impacted on our national life in
almost unimaginable ways. To cope with their effects, the Philippines has had to reassess
and realign its national goals. In education, this realignment is spelled out in its objective of
producing globally competitive graduates who possess among other competencies,
competence in the language of the global village and in the use of the latest technology.
Our facility in English, once our competitive edge over other Asian nations, is
slowly being undermined by growing perceptions of its deterioration. The perceived
deterioration is attributed to many factors not the least of which is the quality of instruction
in all levels of our educational system. Since English is the medium through which
practically all knowledge is assessed, it is imperative that the quality of instruction in
English be upgraded. The Master in English Language Studies (Non-Thesis Program) is
conceived to address the need to upgrade English language instruction in the tertiary level
since this level is the training ground for teachers in all fields of study.
The MELS (Non-Thesis Program) is designed to upgrade the competence and
skills of college English instructors who do not have the inclination or the time to write a
thesis, or the required undergraduate degree to teach English but who have been teaching
English by force of circumstance, or the financial means to pursue a Master of Arts degree
in English.
The English Department Faculty of the College of Arts and Social Sciences has
the capability and the experience to help upgrade the competence and skills of English
instructors in this part of Mindanao. The expertise of its faculty members in language,
literature and language teaching is acknowledged in the frequent visitations as resource
persons in seminars, conferences and workshops or as consultants in research and
publications.
By implementing the MELS (Non-Thesis Program) the institute will put to good
use the expertise of the English Department Faculty, add to its good name the distinction of
being a CHED delivery school in English instruction and help work towards achieving our
national objective in education.
Objectives
The MELS (Non-Thesis Program) commits to uphold the Institutes vision,
mission and objectives.
Specifically, the program aims to provide graduates with knowledge and skills to
enable them to:

MASTER IN SOCIOLOGY
Rationale
In this era of globalization when boundaries between and among systems of
cultures, economies, and governance are rapidly breaking down, competition for survival
and development among nations, institutions, groups, and individuals has likewise become
much stiffer. As an academic institution which has been mandated to develop not only
technicians who can serve the manpower needs of an industrializing Southern Philippines,
but also fully educated graduates imbued with social visions and consciousness; MSUIligan Institute of Technology must respond more effectively to the need for improving the
quality of education for academicians and practitioners in various fields.
Of the existing social science programs at MSU-IIT, it is Sociology that is
believed to be the most appropriate to respond to the challenge of providing the necessary
competencies for one to gain competitive advantage along this field particularly in the
regions of Mindanao, Sulu, and Palawan. Sociology is the social science that tries to
systematically understand the problems that change in culture, governance, economy, or
physical environment can bring to people and society. Various problems of change can be
meaningfully understood and thus appropriately attended to with the help of sociological
perspectives and methods of inquiry which are multidisciplinary.
It is against this backdrop that MSU-IIT has embarked on a masteral program in
Sociology, which produced its first batch of graduates in 1993-1994. In response to the
call of the Commission on Higher Education to fast track faculty upgrading to improve the
quality of higher education, a non-thesis masteral program in Sociology has been
developed as a branch-out of the thesis program.
This institute is equipped with the necessary human skills and competencies to
sustain a non-thesis program on selected areas of sociology. There are at least six faculty
members with Ph.D. and M.A. degrees who could be tapped for the program. This faculty
force could be strengthened by at least eight competent faculty from the main MSU
campus.
This Institute is therefore deemed highly competent to provide the service, which
the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) needs to successfully achieve its goal of
upgrading the capability of tertiary level faculty.

This program is a long overdue answer to the 1995 CED and DPE conducted
researches on the needs and the teaching competencies of Physical Education teachers,
which revealed the need to offer MSPE to upgrade their teaching competencies
83
in sport, physical education, recreation and dance. This was followed-up in a survey
which was conducted in compliance with the requirement of the University Curriculum
Committee. Subsequently, the findings suggested a magnanimous demand for offering the
MSPE program in MSU-IIT.
Finally, in the global front, graduate teachers will be better prepared to select,
train and develop, through competitive sports activities, regional, national and even
international athletes to compete in the International Olympic Games (IOC), thereby
bringing glory to this country.

Admission Requirements
Admission to the program is contingent upon the policies and guidelines of the
Graduate School. In addition, all applicants must meet the following requirements:
1. The student must have an undergraduate engineering degree from a recognized
institution. In the event that the degree is in a field other than civil engineering, the student
may be required to complete a set of prerequisite undergraduate courses before graduate
degree credits may be accrued.
2. The student must have an undergraduate weighted average grade of at least 2.0
or equivalent, or must be able to show some evidence of potential ability to pursue a
graduate degree, e.g., excellent performance in teaching or research, or experience in the
industry or private sector as evidenced by a strong recommendation from his immediate
superior or former mentors.
Degree Requirements
The degree may be earned through a thesis or coursework option. The minimum
course requirements for each option are as follows:

Core courses are identified by CE prefixes. They may be taken from any of the
five areas of discipline, namely, Engineering Construction and Management, Structural
Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Water Resources
Engineering. The offering of such courses is based on the availability of faculty members
vis--vis the number of students meeting the five-enrollee-per-class requirement. Core
courses taken beyond the minimum requirement may be credited as electives.
Foundation courses are identified by ES prefixes. These courses provide the
students necessary background to tackle the core courses. ES 201 is a required foundation
course and must be passed within the first year.
Electives are courses that may be taken, in consultation with the adviser, from any
of the foundation courses of the MOE or MSCE program, or from any discipline-related
courses of the MOE program. Likewise, core courses of MSCE program beyond the 15unit or 24-unit minimum requirement for the thesis or coursework option, respectively,
may also be credited as electives.
Special Project is a course in which the student conducts a practice-oriented study
culminating to the presentation of a project report.
Comprehensive exam is a written exam given to students undergoing the
coursework option. This is aimed at determining the students' ability to integrate and apply
knowledge that they have acquired in their program of study.

Mindanao. These schools are Central Philippine University for Western Visayas,
University of San Carlos for Central and Eastern Visayas, MSU-Iligan Institute of
Technology for Northern Mindanao, and Ateneo de Davao and University of Mindanao for
Southern Mindanao.
Since its founding, the program has helped increase the number of engineering
faculty members with advanced degrees. A number of graduates have been conferred the
degree with specialization in such fields as Ceramics Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Electronics and Communications Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Material
Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Metallurgical Engineering.

Introduction
The Iligan Institute of Technology of the Mindanao State University (MSU-IIT) is
mandated to develop the scientific manpower and technical capability of the Mindanao
region in order to achieve a speedy economic development of the country. As an academic
institution, it must offer and support programs that will bring about the effective fulfillment
of its goals. The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) identified it as a Graduate
Center for Chemistry under its Mindanao Advanced Education Project (MAEP). As such,
it is tasked to help produce the critical mass of scientists in the field of chemistry that will
catalyze the development of Mindanao. Recently, it was identified by CHED as a Center
of Excellence (COE) in Chemistry. The Department of Chemistry of MSU-IIT, being one
of the academic divisions of the institute, must strive towards the realization of this
mandate. One way of achieving this is to offer graduate programs in Chemistry,
specifically Doctor of Philosophy Program in Chemistry and Master of Science in
Chemistry, in addition to its specific tasks of undertaking basic, applied, and missionoriented researches.
The graduate program leading to the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry
aims to increase knowledge and competence in research and teaching in the various fields
of chemistry. The areas of specialization include Analytical, Inorganic, Organic, Physical,
Environmental, and Biochemistry.

3.
Must take a qualifying examination in the four areas of Chemistry namely: Analytical,
Inorganic, Organic, and Physical Chemistry. Qualifying examinations are rated as
either Q (Qualified), P (Passed), or D (Deficient). Qualifying exams will be
given as scheduled by the department.
To qualify for the straight program requires a rating of at least Q in two areas
with at least P in the other 2 areas. A student who obtains only P ratings in the four
areas (with no Qs) will have to go through the regular B.S. program. Upon completion
of the B.S., the student can apply for admission into the regular M.S. program.
Upon being qualified, the student, with his adviser, prepares his program of study
for approval by the Chemistry Graduate Committee. He should now register for graduate
thesis, instead of undergraduate thesis, and graduate courses, instead of the cognates. In
case he opts not to finish the M.S. requirements, he applies for substitution of courses to
credit his graduate courses for the B.S. Chemistry Degree.
Degree Requirements
To qualify for the B.S. in Chemistry degree together with the MS in Chemistry
degree through the B.S.-M.S. Straight Program, a student must comply with the following
requirements:
1.
Undergraduate Courses:
Must have successfully completed all the course
requirements of the latest approved B.S. in Chemistry Program up to the Fourth Year
level, except Chem 192B (Seminar II, 1 unit), Cognates (8 units), and Chem 199
(Undergraduate Research, 3 units).
2.
Graduate Courses: Must have successfully completed at least 36 units of the course
work (including 6 units of M.S. Thesis) specified in his/her program of study.
3.
GPA: Must have an overall Grade Point Average Grade of 2.0 or better after each
semester, for all graduate courses taken. A student who fails to satisfy this
requirement may be put on probation in the following semester upon recommendation
of the Chemistry Graduate Committee. Failure to maintain the required GPA after
the probation period of one semester shall automatically disqualify the student from
the program.

MASTER OF MATHEMATICS
Introduction
More than ten years of implementation of the Master of Science in Mathematics
(MS MATH) program reveals that many applicants seeking for admission to the program
have inadequate preparation for graduate mathematics. These applicants have either
Bachelors degree from related disciplines and who decide to pursue a degree in
mathematics because of their present occupation such as teaching tertiary mathematics or
applicants with degree in a mathematics curriculum who has insufficient mathematics
components towards a standard MS Math program. Admitted to the MS Mathematics
program under conditional status, these type of applicants are required to undertake a one
or two semesters of undergraduate advance mathematics coursework, many are not able to
acquire the necessary maturity to tackle mathematics courses in the MS Math curriculum.
Having no other options provided by the Mathematics Department, the student would
either stay another year of transition courses or leave the MS Math program. To prevent
wastage in educating the prospective tertiary mathematics teachers and to make graduate
offerings more flexible, the Mathematics Department designed a masteral degree
curriculum that provides advanced training for teaching tertiary mathematics which can
also be used by students as a qualifying degree for MS Math.

Introduction
The D. Math (Doctor of Mathematics) Program, an option of the existing Ph.D.
in Mathematics Program of the Department of Mathematics , is designed to cater to the
needs of a broader clientele, encompassing MS degree holders in mathematics and other
related fields, who are competent to undergo the rigors of learning mathematics but are
more inclined into the art of teaching mathematics rather than in mathematics research.
Whereas the Ph.D. Math Program, which is directed towards mathematics
research, requires 60 academic units in math courses in various fields, a comprehensive
exam and a dissertation with original contribution in a chosen field of specialization, which
is publishable in refereed journals, the D. Math Program requires 72 units of academic
requirement, a comprehensive exam and a doctoral thesis , which may be expository in
nature but with sufficient degree of originality and does not require publication. A student
can be awarded either a Ph.D. Math or D. Math degree but not both. However, a student
who has successfully defended his doctoral thesis may opt to write a dissertation to obtain a
Ph.D. Math degree.

The graduate seminars are one-unit subjects involving the presentation of a
research paper arising from library, independent research and dissertation works.
The doctoral research work will be taken after the student has completed all the
course requirements and has passed the candidacy examination. This research work is done
towards the completion of the students Ph. D. dissertation. The subsequent enrollment in
doctoral research work is contingent upon the certification of the students adviser that
his/her work is satisfactorily in progress every semester.
The Ph. D. dissertation is enrolled on the semester when the student is ready for
the final doctoral examination.
