History of the Ateneo de Manila
In 1908, the American colonial government recognized the Ateneo de Manila's college status and licensed its bachelor's degree and certificates in various disciplines, including electrical engineering. The Ateneo campus housed other independent Jesuit institutions of research and learning, such as the Manila Observatory and San José Major Seminary.
