On February 8, 1962, a group of educators headed by Engineer Demetrio A. Quirino Jr. and Dr. Teresita U. Quirino established the TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES as a private non-sectarian stock school.
T.I.P. then directed itself toward specialization in the field of technology. In 1977, it offered a two-year associate course in Marine Engineering. In 1980, the Liberal Arts, Education and high school programs were phased out to make way for the school’s new thrust. In 1981, the student population already exceeded 23,000.
In September 2015, Seoul Accord recognized T.I.P. Manila and T.I.P. Quezon City Computing Programs as a result of the ABET accreditation of these computing programs. Seoul Accord accreditation is the international authority on quality assurance for education in the computing and IT-related programs. This means these T.I.P. programs are now recognized by the eight signatory countries of the SEOUL ACCORD: Republic of Korea, United States, Australia, United Kingdom, Canada, Hong Kong China, Chinese Taipei, and Japan.
In 2013, T.I.P. obtained simultaneous international accreditation of 18 of its Engineering and Computing programs and in 2014, of 2 more of its engineering programs for a total of 20, from the US-based ABET, formerly known as the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, the global gold standard in engineering and computing education accreditation. ABET accreditation demonstrates a program’s commitment to providing its students with quality education.
