History

[edit | edit source]

FEU Alabang primarily caters to students in the Southern Metro Manila area. Established in 2018, the school offers various degree programs including science, engineering, technology, and accountancy.

In 2018, the 1.8 ha (4.4-acre) campus welcomed almost 2,000 students to the 14-storey academic building. The campus also features a 200-seater chapel and gymnasium.[2]

In March 2020, FEU Alabang opened its gymnasium for the front line health care workers of the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM) and to help fight the COVID-19 that is rampaging across the country. The campus, being 300 meters away from RITM, allotted 50 beds and a 12-seater lounge as well as a shower, toilet and locker facilities.

Campus

[edit | edit source]

FEU Alabang's campus is designed by Arch. Carmelo Casas of Casas + Architects.[5] He prioritized sustainability for the structure, using the sun's orientation and prevailing wind direction for light conservation and proper ventilation to students and faculties. The main academic building can accommodate up to 18,000 students.[2]

In February 2020, the Our Lady of Lourdes Chapel was inaugurated. It was headed by FEU President Dr. Michael Alba, FEU Chair Emeritus Dr. Lourdes Reyes Montinola, FEU Chief Finance Officer Johnny Montinola, and Dr. Tan.[6] In September, following its inauguration, Casas + Architects received 5 stars for Public Architecture from the Red Carpet Asia Pacific Property for their work on the chapel.[7]
