Arizona State University-Cintana Alliance Head of Asia and Chief Strategy Officer Chris Hill together with Mapúa University’s Partnership Executive Director Dr. Bonifacio Doma Jr., Mapúa University’s President Dr. Reynaldo Vea and Ayala Group Managing Director Fred Ayala, discuss the new partnership of Mapúa Schools and Arizona State University.

Dr. Reynaldo Vea, President of Mapúa University said “Mapúa University has always been committed to providing education that is rooted in excellence and that can answer to the call of times.” These values extend to MCL as the institution is always finding ways to incorporate excellence in all its students even in the most trying times. This could be done by providing all the needed hard and soft infrastructures suitable for the modern style of teaching and learning.
