Dr. Maestrecampo brings a wealth of experience and a stellar academic background to the University. A homegrown engineer, he is a graduate of BS Chemical Engineering and Masters in Engineering (Chemical Engineering) at Mapúa with a PhD in Education at the De La Salle University-Manila.
His journey with Mapúa spans beyond his academic achievements as a student. He, in fact, served as the Dean of the School of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry before becoming its Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs. He was later entrusted with the responsibility of establishing Mapúa Malayan Colleges Laguna (MMCL) before taking the reins in managing another subsidiary, this time in Mindanao, the Mapúa Malayan Colleges Mindanao (MMCM).
With over three decades of experience in technology and education, he has made significant contributions to the field through his leadership as the President of MMCL and MMCM. His expertise and commitment to higher education have played a pivotal role in driving the digital transformation of Mapúa Malayan Colleges, making him the best fit for the University in achieving academic excellence and fostering innovation.
As the University ushers in new leadership, the Mapúa community salutes Dr. Reynaldo Vea for his exceptional contributions. Under his visionary guidance, Mapúa has realized its vision of becoming one of the best universities in the world. His tireless efforts in enhancing academic excellence, elevating research opportunities, and forging meaningful partnerships within the community and beyond, played an instrumental role in shaping the success and growth of the University.
Mapúa shall continue receiving guidance from Dr. Vea as he continues to serve as the Chairman and CEO of iPeople, Inc. and senior advisor to the Office of the President.
With Dr. Maestrecampo at the helm, Mapúa shall unceasingly foster excellence in all its endeavors and stay true to its longstanding promise to change the lives of many Filipinos.
