For more than a decade, PHINMA built its reputation on transforming existing educational institutions to better serve Filipino students. PHINMA Education begins this process by strategically selecting a school from a key growth area and thoroughly transforming its academics, operations, and student community in order to ensure success for Filipino youth coming from low-income families.

What was once an initial venture with Araullo University in Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija a little over a decade ago, has become a network of schools composed of six secondary and tertiary educational institutions, including Araullo University, Cagayan de Oro College, University of Pangasinan, University of Iloilo, and Southwestern University. Its latest school, St. Jude College of Manila, is its first foray based in Metro Manila.

PHINMA Education is under the PHINMA Group of Companies, the first Filipino-managed investment firm.

PHINMA University of Pangasinan continued to offer its brand of premier local education in 2009, after its acquisition by PHINMA. Through PHINMA’s leadership and management, the college further developed its existing academic programs by employing non-traditional approaches to learning.

​

To date, there are two campuses: in Dagupan, and in Urdaneta. Through PHINMA UPang, PHINMA is realizing its goal of providing better quality yet affordable education to more Filipinos. Graduates from PHINMA UPang continue to excel in board examinations, particularly in nursing and engineering.
