Activities: Freshman Orientation Program 2011

Sunday, June 26, 2011

Last June 13 2011 after the College of Science Freshman Orientation Program, Albert Hall, the home building of the National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, became the venue of this year's NIMBB Freshman Orientation Program.



Hosted by UP MBBS in cooperation with the institute representatives (who are coincidentally, also part of UP MBBS), the program kicked off the new academic year with a big bang.

Introducing the MBB curriculum and general college life to the new members of the NIMBB family were just a few of the activities lined up for the day. All in all, the freshies enjoyed an org-prepared lunch, lab tour, and talent session.

Congratulations to the winners of the presentation and congratulations to the freshies who were just so bibo and game throughout the entire thing.

We hope that this little gesture from UP MBBS and your institute NIMBB has shown you that throughout your (hopefully) four years with us, we will serve not only as your fellow course-mates, admin, teachers and staff, but also a big warm family.

And once again,
WELCOME MBB FRESHIES
from UP MBBS

Activities: UP MBBS Outreach 2011

Last May 28, 2011, at Park 7, Bgy. Loyola Heights, UP MBBS conducted its first outreach program of the academic year, Family Day Summer Camp 2011, organized by Klub Tala in partnership with UP MBBS and the EduChild Foundation, Inc..



Summer Camp is an annual project organized by Klub Tala which aims to give lessons and activities to underprivileged children, 6 to 12 years of age, from the Katipunan Area.

This year, in cooperation with EduChild, the activities included seminars for parents with regards to rearing a family

The Family Day was a venue for a short talk on strengthening family bonds and promoting healthy family relationships, as well as fun, food and games for the entire family. All in all, about 40 children and their families participated in the activity and the event was a great success.

In line with UP MBBS's philosophy, Promote, Enhance, Express, activities such as these allow the org to give back to the community.
