Question about language requirement
Since English verbal skills are tested for entrance, it suggests a question about how many (if any) courses are taught in English. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vinh1000 (talk • contribs) 11:08, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Expansion
Polytechnic University of the Philippines, needs further expansion. It has a very little information. Also unorganized, it always denotes about Manila campus only. It should be considered as a system User:Adkranz
 * I agree. Though PUP Manila is popular being the PUP, PUP alone should stand as an entity of all PUP branches not the Manila branch ONLY. It should garner information of all PUP System as PUP itself is a sytem. It is so selfish to consider that PUP is being changed to PUP Manila for the sole reason of popularity.

The PUP article is very disorganized. Please rename this page as Polytechnic University of the Philippines System (not redirect), and rename PUP Manila as Polytechnic University of the Philippines. Formal naming conventions of Philippine universities and colleges states that main campuses adhere to the institutions' generic name (see state colleges and universities). UP System is an exemption, because each campuses are of equal standing with each other. If we'll continue to use PUP for the system and PUP Manila for the main campus, it seems like PUP Main is just like the different PUP campuses. PUP Main (or what you call PUP Manila) is the PUP itself. Also, it doesn't have the same standing as other campuses since its is the Main and the most important entity of the university. It's just the university has extension campuses and branches. If you want to have an article for the whole system, please rename this one as PUP System, because PUP and PUP Manila are tantamount with each other. See the conventions used by University of Michigan, Mindanao State University and University of Washington. PUP Manila is not recognized by CHED as the official name for the PUP main campus. It should be simply called PUP in formal documents, except for satellite campuses. It is the same convention used by other philippine universities and colleges. The article PUP and PUP Manila create confusion for others, because they will think that PUP Manila is just a branch of PUP. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Isko1901 (talk • contribs) 11:22, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Merger with Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Manila
The debate regarding the deletion of the article Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Manila has been closed and the decision is to merge the said article with the main Polytechnic University of the Philippines article. 121.54.54.47 (talk) 04:32, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Colleges
I think the colleges section of the article has undergone constant vandalism from some editors. Please refrain from adding the College of Health Sciences and Technology because there is no such unit within PUP. And also, please note that the respective departments of each college are presented. Stop putting degree programs because it doesn't comply with Wikipedia standards. Thanks! Isko1901 (talk) 16:22, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

Sub campuses?
Three sub-campuses named Mabini, NDC and M.H. del Pilar. How it work? I think its just a HALL or building. Besides its located in same location. Does it located in separate nearby location?

 * Sir, apparently, PUP Manila is composed of three separate campuses. Although, these group campuses is considered as one according to the PUP System.

Unibersidad or Pamantasan?
Apparently, there is a great confusion about the use of the Filipino word for University. It should be Pamantasan and not Unibersidad. It is possible that Wikipedian users here use the word Unibersidad for it matches a university's acronym better (e.g. Unibersidad ng Santo Tomas (University of Santo Tomas) than Pamantasan ng Santo Tomas (UST); Polyteknikong Unibersidad ng Pilipinas (Polytechnic University of the Philippines) rather than Polyteknikong Pamantasan ng Pilipinas (PUP)).

 * That is the case, and as a matter of convention we use unibersidad if it matches the acronym, unless the university uses otherwise. If I were to be pedantic on grammar, then it should be "Pamantasang Politekniko ng Pilipinas", if we are to insist on using pamantasan instead of unibersidad. --Sky Harbor (talk) 03:45, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Merger with PUP College of Education
The PUP College of Education hence made a history and contribution to the university so it deserves its own page. As a prestigious, premiere and oldest college I think it deserves a page that will deliver information to its students. Other colleges and universities also obtain information in this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.57.37.123 (talk) 03:08, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Merging colleges
Following AfD and DRV discussion I am merging in some college article content.

Requesting for semi-protection
It seems that several IP addresses have contributed in promoting (a) political (student) organization(s?) in PUP. Because of this I am requesting that this article be semi-protected, so that only registered users can edit it, no one can promote their school organizations, and only verified material can be added to its content.

Changing the images to current ones
I would like to know if I can change the two current images: File:Manila-santa mesa-pup campus - gate and pylon (2013).jpg and File:PUP CEA edifice.jpg with the images I just took this year. The front view to make it more clear, and the gate without too many people (seems to be too crowded). If you all agree, I would like to change.

Here are my images that I've uploaded: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:PUP_Engineering_and_Architecture_Building_Front_view.jpg

Treatment of data in this article
Shouldn't the data in this article refer to the PUP system itself? Most of the data, including but not limited to the general and campuses information relate only to the Manila campuses. I have put info on other campuses on the campuses section weeks ago but it seems to be deleted.... Just thinking. Libertylie (talk) 11:00, 16 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Hello Libertylie, PUP Manila and the PUP System is tantamount to each other (Further information regarding about PUP Manila/PUP System here). There are already articles about the other campuses of PUP. We do not need separate articles for PUP System and PUP Manila.
