The University of the UUÖ±²¥ – College of Fine Arts, Architecture and Design (UE CFAD) proudly congratulates Mr. Jose “Joey†C. Mariano for receiving an Honorable Mention at the recently concluded Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) National Art Competition for his watercolor painting, Hanap Buhay. As one of the competition’s finalists and awardees, Mr. Mariano received a certificate of recognition, a commemorative medal, and a cash prize of ₱200,000.

Hanap Buhay is an artwork that illuminates the silent heroism of firefighters, portraying their work not only as a profession and means of livelihood but also as a relentless search for life and hope amid tragedy and disaster. The piece powerfully captures the extraordinary dedication of Filipino firefighters, who risk their lives in service to others, embodying this year’s competition theme, “The Filipino Public Servant.â€

Currently teaching in the Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Communication program at UE CFAD, Mr. Mariano is a multi-talented artist whose practice spans character design, illustration, painting, and visual effects. A proud graduate of UE CFAD’s Advertising Arts program, now known as Visual Communication, he has established himself in both traditional and digital media. His professional portfolio includes contributions to television series, films, and commercials, most notably the acclaimed live-action adaptation of Voltes V: Legacy. As a 2D compositor and 3D visual effects artist, he combines technical expertise with a distinctive artistic vision that continues to shape imaginative visual worlds.

Beyond his professional achievements, Mr. Mariano remains committed to mentoring the next generation of artists as an instructor at UE CFAD, where he emphasizes innovation, creativity, and strong artistic foundations. Outside the classroom and the studio, he is also an avid toy collector and designer, drawing inspiration from nostalgia and contemporary culture to create unique works that bridge the past and the present.

Meanwhile, other UE CFAD award-winning alumni who were among the competition’s finalists include Neo-Folkloric iconographer Ernesto “Aris†Bagtas, whose acrylic painting Lingkod Bayan was recognized, and Leo T. Santos III, who was also named a finalist for his acrylic painting, Apoy at Tapang. Both earned their Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees with a major in Advertising Arts.

UE CFAD takes pride in the achievements of its alumni, whose artistic excellence and commitment to meaningful storytelling continue to inspire future generations of visual artists.

]]> INTERNATIONAL FILMFEST FINALIST | UE BFA Viscom Student Film Named Finalist in Long-running Experimental Film Festival! /cal/international-filmfest-finalist-ue-bfa-viscom-student-film-named-finalist-in-long-running-experimental-film-festival/ Wed, 28 Jan 2026 02:16:24 +0000 /cal/?p=19496 Dave Ivo Brielle T. Oro, a University of the UUÖ±²¥ Bachelor of Fine Arts major in Visual Communication student who is now a candidate for midyear commencement this February, has achieved a significant international milestone as his film ‘Kinulayang Ngiti’ was selected as a finalist at Germany’s prestigious 39th Stuttgarter Filmwinter: Festival for Expanded Media, held from January 13 to 21, 2026.

’Kinulayang Ngiti’ is Mr. Oro’s final experimental film project under the tutelage of filmmaker and Professor at the UE College of Fine Arts, Architecture and Design (CFAD), director-curator Richard Soriano Legaspi. This marks the first film by a UE student to be selected as a finalist in this renowned international festival that is now nearing its fourth decade. This international screening also served as the world premiere of the film.

An experimental work, ‘Kinulayang Ngiti’ interrogates the spectacle of elections by questioning the sincerity behind smiling politicians and the visually striking campaign materials that dominate public spaces. Through its distinctive visual language, the film captures the collective fatigue of a people trapped in cycles of promises and disillusionment. As hope fades and trust erodes, the film poses a haunting question: Do those in power truly care, or are their smiles merely a mask for something darker? Ultimately, the film stands as a love letter to those who have lost faith in voting due to ineffective leadership and recurring calamities brought about by political incompetence.

The Stuttgarter Filmwinter: International Festival for Expanded Media is widely recognized for its focus on experimental, avant-garde, and boundary-pushing cinema. The festival brings together filmmakers and audiences who value innovative artistic expression, blending high art with accessibility. This approach strongly reflects the strengths of the UE Bachelor of Fine Arts major in Visual Communication program, which has been competing in the international film festival arena for the past ten years.

Mr. Oro continues to bring pride and honor not only to the University of the UUÖ±²¥ but also to the Philippines. He also represented UE at CineMapúa 2025, the longest-running student film festival in the country, where his other experimental film ‘Yakap sa Yapak’ was a finalist. The film has likewise garnered international recognition, having competed at the 5th Footprints Film Festival in New Delhi and the AMI Arts Festival in India.

This Viscom Warrior’s strength in visual storytelling and his engagement with pressing socio-political issues distinguish him as a remarkable emerging art visionary. By seamlessly combining humanism with strong visual aesthetics, his works do more than captivate. They invite audiences to pause, reflect, and ultimately take action, creating ripples of change within society.

The images show filmmaker Dave Oro and stills from his ‘Kinulayang Ngiti’.

Kudos, Viscom Warrior and to your UE CFAD mentors!

]]> The University of the UUÖ±²¥, through the College of Arts and Sciences-Caloocan (UE CAS Caloocan), continues to offer the Bachelor of Science in Criminology with specialization in Cybersecurity! /cal/the-university-of-the-east-through-the-college-of-arts-and-sciences-caloocan-ue-cas-caloocan-continues-to-offer-the-bachelor-of-science-in-criminology-with-specialization-in-cybersecurity/ Tue, 08 Jul 2025 23:18:51 +0000 /cal/?p=19419

What’s more: For school year 2025-2026, incoming freshmen and upperclassmen who will join the UE BS Crim student body can join for an outright payment of just P1,000.00.

UE Caloocan’s fresh criminology degree program carries in its four-year curriculum cybersecurity specialization courses such as cyberspace and cybersecurity, information assurance and security, network and data communication protocols, digital forensics, machine learning in security, and security penetration testing and audit.

“We look forward to producing highly competent and upright graduates who can deliver efficient services in crime prevention, crime detection and investigation, law enforcement, public safety and criminological research,†UE CAS Caloocan Dean Michelle H. Concepcion has said.

Check out the UE BS Crim program primer video here: 

“In these times when digital and cyberthreats and attacks have become increasingly rampant, we hope to arm our aspiring criminology students with the knowledge and know-how to fend off and foil technology-aided crimes, whether perpetuated globally or locally,†Dean Concepcion stressed.

With the Philippine National Police (PNP) recruiting thousands of new police officers every year and the heightened need for security workers in various fields, graduates of criminology are highly in demand.

The PNP is hiring thousands of personnel yearly, recruiting over 6,000 personnel in 2023 which has lowered the ratio of cops per person from only 1:500 to 1:125. With the proliferation of cybercrimes and digital scams in the country, the PNP has stated its plan to improve their response capability by capacitating their regional offices and police stations through trainings.

“UE aspires to help provide the country with highly equipped professionals who can anticipate and address new and complex forms of criminality and who possess the needed character and competence to meet the challenges of globalization in the field of criminology,†Dean Concepcion explained.

Aside from entry into the police force and other relevant government agencies, career options of criminology graduates include business continuity management and security management in the private sector, research in specialized organizations, teaching in the academia, security consultancies, and many others.

Republic Act 11549 has lowered the minimum height requirement for applicants to the PNP, Bureau of Fire Protection, Bureau of Jail Management and Penology and the Bureau of Corrections from 1.62 meters to 1.57 meters (5’2â€) for males and from 1.57 meters to 1.52 meters (5’) for females, while granting height waiver for applicants belonging to cultural communities or indigenous peoples.

For the past 78 years, UE has produced hundreds of thousands of graduates, many of whom have excelled in their respective fields in the country and abroad.

Inquiries regarding its BS Criminology degree program may be referred to UE CAS Caloocan via call to tel. no. 83641497 or email to <cas.cal@ue.edu.ph> and <admissions.caloocan@ue.edu.ph>, and to the other contact details listed here: /cal/cas-curricular-offerings/

Thank you and we hope to welcome you to UE this July, future Criminology Warriors!
