With a goal to make quality education more accessible, Manuel S. Enverga University Foundation presses on with the construction of its upcoming Mauban campus. More than half of the overall timeline for the costruction is targeted for completion by May, allowing sufficient allowance for adjustments and finishing works before it operates by June. To support early preparations, four classrooms are planned for initial completion, while construction of additional facilities with its second floor continues. Other structures such as the guardhouse, flagpole, faculty room, and parking areas for personnel are scheduled to follow.
JANUARY CONSTRUCTION UPDATES: Site preparation and early groundwork activity begins
The development of the new campus continued to advance as construction updates were reviewed on-site on January 9, reflecting the university's efforts to keep the project on track.
As of January, site preparation and early-stage construction activities are underway across the new campus grounds, as the project begins to take its first physical shape.
FEBRUARY CONSTRUCTION UPDATES: Laying the foundation marks steady progress
Construction at the upcoming Mauban campus continues to move forward, with foundation works currently focusing on the footing for the tie beams. On-site activities remain concentrated below ground level, reflecting the progression through its foundation phase.
The rainy weather from the past months, the presence of groundwater on-site, and minor slippages served as a challenge for the construction. However, these were managed by continuous dewatering and have not delayed the construction schedule.
To prepare for the next phase, site tidying and layout works continue to move toward above-ground activities. Construction materials and manpower are also set to be fully mobilized on site.
As of the first week of February, about 15% of the total project has been accomplished. Despite challenges, construction remains right on schedule, highlighting steady progress and readiness for the phases ahead.

MARCH CONSTRUCTION UPDATES—Structural works rise as construction moves above ground
Work at the incoming Mauban campus has broken above ground, with crews now pushing structural activity to the second floor.
Laborers are currently laying the suspended slab for the second floor while ground floor wall construction continues through ongoing concrete hollow block (CHB) work. Vertical reinforcements for the staircase have also been set, priming the site for the next phase of structural work. A slab pour and works on flooring are expected to start soon.
Finishing works are targeted to kick off later this month. Workers are also expected to break ground on surrounding site features — among them the perimeter fence, guardhouse, and flagpole — as the campus eyes a May operational opening.
