ISPSC gets 32M grants from DA
STA. MARIA, ILOCOS SUR- The Ilocos Sur Polytechnic State College, through the leadership of its new President, Dr. Gilbert R. Arce, received a 32 million-peso worth of infrastructure grants from the Department of Agriculture (DA), September 25, 2020.

He also pledged to elevate the College into a higher level of higher education by providing the said infrastructures which “will render education that is based on science and technology”.

Dr. Dar also promised to modernize the ISPSC College of Fisheries with 50 million funds and another 40 million pesos for the Food Processing Center in Sta Maria Campus.
President Arce, on the other hand, thanked and assured the DA Secretary and the Officials of the Provincial Government of Ilocos Sur that ISPSC, through his leadership, will remain committed to make the College [soon to be a University] a premier Agricultural College not only in Ilocos Sur but in the whole country as well.
ISPSC in the 1st District
As ISPSC will have an extension campus in San Juan, Ilocos Sur where the Veterinary Medicine program will be offered, Dr. Dar also vowed that the Department of Agriculture will provide research and extension services while ISPSC students get the actual learning exposure synergizing each other.
Future Directions
Dr. Dar emphasized that the ultimate sustainable goal of the Project is to produce graduates who are not only mere employees but entrepreneurs who will create jobs for the community.
