Technological Institute of the Philippines. Technological Institute of the Philippines (T.I.P.; ) is one of the country’s premier engineering institutions which also offers programs in computing, architecture, business, education, and the arts. T.I.P. also offers senior high school and graduate studies in selected engineering and computing disciplines.

It is located in Metro Manila, Philippines, with 2 campuses, 1 in Quezon City, the T.I.P. QC campus, and 1 in Manila, the T.I.P. Manila campus.

It is a private non-sectarian stock institution founded on February 8, 1962 by a group of educators led by Engineer Demetrio A. Quirino, Jr. and Dr. Teresita U. Quirino. T.I.P. is committed to providing high-quality and best-value education. Leveraging on an outcomes-based educational model and globally accredited programs, T.I.P. produces graduates prepared to meet industry needs, contribute to the nation's economic development, or pursue technopreneurship to address societal challenges.

ISO Certification 

In 1999 the school’s Quality Management System (QMS) was certified compliant to the international standard ISO 9001:1994 by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) during this year. The T.I.P. QMS has since then passed regular ISO recertification and surveillance audits.

The turn of the millennium saw T.I.P.’s campaign to externally validate the quality of its programs. From 2000 to the present, T.I.P. has been voluntarily applying its programs for local and international accreditations and assessments from respected organizations.

ABET Accreditation 
ABET is the US-based global gold standard in engineering and computing accreditation. 

T.I.P. got the first ABET accreditation of 20 of its programs in 2013 – 14 from the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) and 6 from the Computing Accreditation Commission (CAC). 

T.I.P. vied for the second cycle of ABET international accreditation in 2018 and received, a year later, reaccreditation of all 20 of its engineering and computing programs.

Seoul Accord Accreditation 
The Seoul Accord is a multilateral agreement among agencies allowing professional mobility between the Philippines and the pact’s signatory countries.

In 2015, T.I.P.'s Computer Science (BSCS), Information Systems (BSIS), and Information Technology (BSIT) programs were acknowledged under the Seoul Accord by virtue of their ABET CAC accreditation.

Graduates enjoy full recognition of their degree in countries such as the Republic of Korea, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, United States, China, and Japan.

AUN-QA Assessment 
In 2021, T.I.P. gained international recognition from the ASEAN University Network - Quality Assurance (AUN-QA) for the assessment of some of its programs.  The AUN-QA is responsible for educational standards and continuous academic improvement of ASEAN schools.

Most recently, T.I.P. passed the Institutional Assessment of AUN-QA.

Local accreditations 
From 2000 to the present, T.I.P. has been voluntarily applying its programs for local accreditation from respected organizations. These accreditations include the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA) under the umbrella of the Federation of Accrediting Agencies of the Philippines (FAAP); the Philippine Technological Council; and the Philippine Computer Society (PCS) Information and Computing Accreditation Board (PICAB).

CHED Centers of Excellence and Development 
During this period, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) also awarded 16 Centers of Excellence and Centers of Development to both T.I.P. campuses.

Moreover, CHED also awarded Autonomous Status to T.I.P. Quezon City in 2009 and to both T.I.P. Quezon City and T.I.P. Manila in 2016 and again in 2019.

Most recently, the CHED renewed the Autonomous status of both T.I.P. Quezon City and T.I.P. Manila for another 3 years– 2024-2027.
