Mapúans welcome this Christmas season filled with joy and gratitude as the community commences Paskong Mapúan 2023 at the Intramuros campus.
With this year’s theme, “Celebrating Eras of Gratitude,” the annual holiday celebration highlighted the importance of showing appreciation to those who have extended their kindness and been a blessing in our lives.
The Mapúan community has a lot to be grateful for this year, maintaining its 4 –Star rating in the Asia University Rankings 2024 by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) and placing 601+ in the Times Higher Education (THE) Asia University Rankings, a testament to the University’s unwavering dedication to providing quality education.
“Over the years, Mapúa has stood as a pillar of innovation through many eras. Let us be reminded of our collective commitment to excellence, which defines us and our university. I hope that it will inspire us to be generous and reflect on the strength of our unity,” said Dr. Dodjie Maestrecampo, president and CEO of Mapúa University, in a speech delivered during the symbolic tree lighting ceremony last November 17.
The festivities began with the symbolic tree lighting ceremony and will wrap up on December 16, ending with the highly anticipated Mapúa Christmas Concert. One of the highlights of this year’s Paskong Mapúan is the opening of Cardi-Town 2023, Mapúans’ Got Talent, Battle of the Bands, and more.
