The University of Negros Occidental – Recoletos (UNO-Recoletos, , colloquially, ''UNO-R''), is a private, Roman Catholic university founded on 1941 in Bacolod, Negros Occidental, Philippines and administered by the Order of Augustinian Recollects. The University was granted "autonomous status" by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) for five years while its College of Arts and Sciences was granted Level III accreditation by the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities (PAASCU). CHED also granted the university’s College of Engineering and College of Information Technology the distinction as Centers of Development and Excellence in their Electrical Engineering and Information Technology courses respectively. The university was also granted with Category A(t) by the Institutional Quality Assurance through Monitoring and Evaluation (IQuAME). ==History== The University of Negros Occidental – Recoletos was founded in 1941 in Talisay, Negros Occidental by Dr. Antonio A. Lizares and Dr. Francisco Kilayko. Then known as ''Occidental Negros Institute'', the school offered first and second years of high school education. Upon the outbreak of World War II in the Philippines in December of that same year, the institute closed temporarily. ''Occidental Negros Institute'' was re-established in Bacolod in 1946, this time offering elementary, high school and three tertiary degree programs. The campus transferred from Locsin street (formerly Smith Street) to Lupit Subdivision in Lizares Avenue, its present site, in 1950. Dr. Antonio Lizares served as the school's first President with Dr. Francisco Kilayko as the School Director. On May 15, 1957, ONI was elevated to university status by the Acting Secretary of Education, Martin V. Aguilar, Jr. ONI became the ''University of Negros Occidental'', the first university in the province. Five years later, on May 25, 1962, UNO was acquired by the Augustinian Recollect friars. UNO became the ''University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos'' with Fr. Federico Terradillos, OAR, as the first acting Rector. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「University of Negros Occidental – Recoletos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
