SDG 8 - DECENT WORK AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

UNP is on a mission to turn SDG 8 – Decent Work and Economic Growth into reality. Nestled in the heart of Vigan, this University is churning out graduates who aren’t just book-smart, but street-smart, and culturally rich too.

From engineering to medicine, law to Information Technology, UNP’s got a buffet of programs that’s prepping students for the real world. But they’re not just about classroom learning. These Nasaririt folks are rolling up their sleeves, and sustains a hands-on approach in serious community work.

Do picture this: UNP students, and staff out in the Ilocos Sur neighborhoods, teaching residents how to grow mushrooms, bake like pros, fix engines, and even repair cellphones. They’re not just handing out fish; they’re teaching people how to fish – and then some!

UNP’s research game is strong, cooking up new tech, and business strategies that are giving the local economy a real boost. And they’re not stopping there. They’re handing out equipment to budding entrepreneurs, helping kickstart businesses left and right.

The result? A steady stream of top-notch graduates who are snapped up by local businesses, hospitals, and government offices so fast!

In a nutshell, UNP isn’t just talking about decent work, and economic growth – they’re making it happen, one graduate, one community project, and one innovation at a time. 

They’re not just part of Ilocos Sur; they’re the engine driving it forward.
