How We Started. Our humble beginnings
Founded in the Philippines by eight agricultural engineering honor students in 1966 at Central Mindanao University (CMU), our organization continues to transform the lives of members and help them become better and productive citizens. Conduct of our members is guided by our three core values: honor, service and loyalty.
From its selective membership that only accepts engineering students, the fraternity has expanded eligibility to include qualified sophomore college students – regardless of academic discipline. The academic standard, however, remains the same: members are expected to maintain a satisfactory academic standing.
Membership is primarily earned during college days and members usually find themselves longing for the unique camaraderie and genuine friendship when they leave the portals of their alma mater. Today, numerous alumni chapters have been established around the globe.
