About UST FMS@150
Established in 1871, the UST Faculty of Medicine and Surgery will become 150 years old in 2021. In preparation for this historic milestone, the Faculty has started to plan various activities and programs attuned to its role as the premier catholic school for medical education in the Philippines and Asia.
Under the leadership of Dean Jesus V. Valencia and its Regent, Fr. Angel Aparicio, O.P., the Faculty has formed several committees to prepare and oversee its Sesquicentennial celebration, seeking to involve not only administration and faculty members but our alumni, students and support staff as well. The over-all committee has set a timeline and goals to accomplish for each academic year until 2021. Close partners in these endeavors are the student organizations of the FMS, UST Medical Alumni Associations, UST Medical Missions Inc. and the UST Hospital.
