Make it happen.
The Management Program combines business and academics that stimulate students’ lives in the real world after graduation. In the process, the program equips students with the knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary to transform the challenges of the 21st century into business opportunities and socially responsible enterprises.
The Management Program aims to develop the Management ACES—management students who are analytical, have excellent communication skills, are ethical, and show the necessary soft skills. (i.e., emotional and professional maturity, ability to work in a team).
In the first three years in the University, students go through a common liberal arts curriculum. In the third year, however, students begin to take core subjects in the management program.
In the fourth year, which is considered to be the first year of the graduate studies, the program offers a generalist view of the basic management functions (finance, human resource, marketing, operations, and enterprise resource systems). On the fifth year, students should have acquired a multi-disciplined analytical framework, a holistic and strategic perspective to decision-making, and a systematic approach to implementation.
The Management Program is delivered using applied research methodologies, with emphasis on team-based project study. The combination of academic, co-curricular, and extra-curricular activities simulates life, which is further enhanced by a work-study model via the business-academe partnerships for internship placements. The formal student-faculty mentoring process and career planning workshops contribute to a personalized learning experience.

Business-Academe Partnership (7-month internship)
The Business-Academe Partnership is an intensive 7-month program, which starts in January and ends in July, which requires the management interns to report to their host companies everyday and do research work. It is a project-based internship that aims to address relevant business issues via projects performed by management students.
The result of the program is a management graduate who is ready to face the corporate world, is highly objective and yet creative, with a strong foundation in research methodologies and in solving business dilemmas.
Our faculty is a deliberate mix of academic specialists who deliver the theoretical foundations of the course and the experienced executives who serve as students’ mentors and provide them with real-life flavor. The academic specialists have both consulting and corporate experiences; they obtained doctorate and master’s degrees from the finest schools in the Philippines and abroad. The experienced executives, aside from having advanced degrees, mainly MBA and Business Economics, are seasoned professionals familiar with the realities of diverse industries and at the same time grounded in the philosophy of the University.

UA&P Law is one of the top-performing law schools in the 2018 Bar Examinations. UA&P came in fourth with a passing rate of 66.67 percent. You may view the article of Rappler here. UA&P also performed well in the 2019 Bar Examinations with 88.89 percent passing rate. UA&P has an 85.71 percent passing rate for first-time Bar Exam takers while second-time Bar Exam takers have a 100 percent passing rate.
UA&P’s Law program provides training in standard competencies expected of lawyers, such as legal reasoning and advocacy. Following worldwide trends in the field of legal education, and reinforced by its integration within UA&P’s liberal arts orientation, the Law program adopts interdisciplinary and international perspectives in producing competent, cultured and ethical lawyers.
UA&P has the following offerings for those who wish to obtain a law degree:
Juris Doctor (JD). This 4-year course in Law fulfills all government requirements for admission to the Bar. It requires previous completion of a bachelor’s degree.
Lex Honors. Open to outstanding high school graduates, this program compresses the standard pre-law course to three (3) years. Thereafter, the student can apply for admission to the Juris Doctor program, which will still require four (4) years and will follow the same curriculum (see above). The program requires a high school average of 85% in order to qualify.
JD students and those in the Lex Honors program are provided with professional and personal mentoring during their stay in UA&P.

Leaner, more flexible, focused, and yet more responsive to the demands of a modern globalized Philippines – the Revised UA&P Law JD Curriculum!
Arguably the first of its kind in the country under the LEB’s new Model Curriculum, the Revised UA&P Law JD Curriculum offers to our law students two tracks of specialization to choose from: a JD Degree, with a Certificate of Specialization in Corporate Law Practice (for those intending a career in business or commercial law) or a JD Degree, with a Certificate of Specialization in Judicial Practice (for those intending to enter the Judiciary or focus in litigation work).
All this towards our goal of producing cultured, professionally competent, and ethical Filipino lawyers with a global and multidisciplinary perspective.

The complete IT professional.
The Master in Information Technology (MIT) program of UA&P aims to produce the complete IT professional—equally capable as a software engineer, systems administrator, business analyst, and researcher. The master’s degree gives the graduate an edge in the IT industry as it trains graduate students not just to be administrators, but to be managers, senior engineers, strategic planners, chief information officers, entrepreneurs, and educators. It does this by providing IT training that focuses on the development of intellectual activities and not just the acquisition of skills.
The program emphasizes the acquisition of concepts and technologies preparing and enabling the graduate student for the industrial practice of systems integration, systems administration, systems planning, systems implementation, and other activities that maintain the integrity and proper functionality of a system and its components. It also involves projects relevant to the industry including business, education, government.
The MIT program is deeply enmeshed in the industry as its faculty are key members and leaders in recognized IT organizations and corporations. Graduate students will be trained by CEOs, managing directors, senior executives, technology entrepreneurs, and seasoned experts in various specializations.
