The College of Communication and Information Technology (CCIT) is the University’s provider of quality education along Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and library and information science.
The College traces its foundation in 1987, when the University, under the administration of Dr. Dorotea Campos-Filart, started to offer its first computer diploma program, the One-Year Computer Technology, through an agreement with a private computer college, the Data Center Philippines, Inc. (DCPI). Dr. Milagros R. Remular was then assigned as Coordinator of Computer Education.
When Dr. Lauro B. Tacbas became the UNP President in 1998, the joint project with DCPI ended, with the University Computer Center taking over the offering of the core and major courses for the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) and the One-Year Computer Technology (CompTech) programs in the University, as well as the basic computer courses for the majority of degree programs in the University. On June 30, 1999, Dr. Remular was designated as the first Director of the Computer Center.
The CCIT ICT Week Celebration for students is an event of paramount significance in the world of technology and digitalization. This annual event is organized to promote the use and relevance of technology in various fields. It has a rich tradition of providing students with numerous opportunities to explore and master the ever-evolving domains of digital technologies.

The icing on the cake is the chance for students to interact with industry professionals, technology experts, and other students with shared interests, to gain knowledge and insights into the world of technology.
