The curriculum of the program is subdivided into four main categories, which are: General Education Courses, Physics and Math Courses, Applied and Pure Astronomy Courses, and Computer and Data Science Courses.

For the College of Engineering and Technology, 1978 was a year to reckon with for it marked the birth of the Institute of Engineering and Technology as the collegiate department started to operate within the Evangelical College Building in Diliman, Quezon City. The initial courses offered included Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BS CE), Bachelor of Science in Electronics Engineering (BS ECE), Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BS EE), Bachelor of Science in Management and Industrial Engineering (BS MIE), and Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BS ME). Engineer Arsenio Luna was tapped to serve as its first dean and was primarily tasked to guide the institute’s operation during its formative year. In 1986, the movement from the Evangelical College building to the new building located in St. Joseph St., Milton Hills Subdivision, Diliman, Quezon City also brought forth a change in leadership for the Institute. A few months after, Bro. Edmario M. Reyes was designated as the acting dean during the interim period when Engr. Arsenio Luna left for the United States. It also marked the change of the BSMIE program to BSIE. The Institute started to really shine during the term of Bro. Edmario M. Reyes as dean whose term covered the period 1988-1998. Under his leadership, the Institute gradually prospered and it was during this period that the concept of an engineering exhibit was born. With the help of Bro. Marco Eraño V. Manalo, the institute held the first WAVES exhibit and was followed by WAVES II exhibit. After these initial undertakings, the Institute was able to hold engineering exhibits on a regular basis. The first sweet success of the legacy left by his predecessors allowed the institute to have a board placer who took 8th slot on the April 1988 licensure exam. The initial success brought by Engr. Paderanga was followed by Engr. Abraham C. Ignacio who placed 4th on the same licensure exam in 1989. Engr. David D. Parial was able to land on the 17th place for the ME board exam. A year after, Engr. Alfred Norman C. Coronel was able to obtain 6th place for the November 1991 ECE board exam. In Nov of 1993 and April 1994, the ECE had its sweetest moment thus far, for consecutively, Engr. Anthony N. Sanding and Engr. Ronie Padua took the 2nd slot for ECE board exam while Engr. Arnel Delgadillo landing on 15th place during the April exam. November of the same year, Engr. Randy A. Velasco was able to obtain another 6th place for the ECE board exam. Not to be outdone, the Civil Engineering department produced the Institute’s highest number of topnotchers in a board exam when three of their graduates, Engr. Lamberto V. Sabado, Engr. Melchizedek E. Manalo and Engr. Ramel Valloroso placed 9th, 15th, and 17th, respectively in the CE board exam of May 1993. It was also during this time that the Institute of Engineering and Technology started to shine in interschool/university engineering competitions as evidenced by the numerous medals and trophies brought home by participants fielded in these activities. The transition of NEW ERA COLLEGE to NEW ERA UNIVERSITY in 1995 entailed a change of the Institute of Engineering and Technology to the College of Engineering and Technology. It was a time of euphoria and great expectations for the newly acquired status. New policies and strategies were developed to better served the student population. An ME graduate, Engr. Noel S. Barcelona was able to capture the 8th place in the October 1995 exam. Roger D. Perfecto placed 5th on the Registered Master Electrician on October 1996. With the University’s commitment to reach higher level of excellence, the CET embarked on a long range plan to attain the highest level of accreditation and the ground work was laid under the leadership of Bro. Albert Cruz as dean during 2001-2003. With the administration’s full support together with the Engineering faculty and staff, the CET was awarded LEVEL I accreditation status. The drive to pursue such a commitment was further enhanced during the term of Brother Elmer M. Mujar with the formal accreditation of the CE, ME and IE programs for LEVEL II was granted by the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities – Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA) as well as the recognition by the Commission on Higher Education of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BS CS) program being offered by the College. The formation of a strategic partnership between NEU-CET and SMART Communications was also forged during his incumbency. Formal accreditation of the CE, ME and IE programs for LEVEL II was achieved from Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities – Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA) during this time as well as recognition of the CS program being offered by the Commission on Higher Education. A young blood took over the helm on the stewardship of the college in 2006. Engr. Ariel A. Aral was appointed as the youngest serving dean of the University. A man with a dynamic and a charismatic personality, he immediately consolidated the achievements made by his predecessors to better streamline the College’s operation. Just a short time after he started his stint as the dean, the NEUCET was among the first and pioneering institution in the NCR to be awarded a certificate of recognition by the CHED and TESDA to offer ladderized courses integrated to five of its existing engineering programs. The embedded TVET qualifications in these ladderized courses include: PC Operations NC II, Computer Hardware Servicing NC II, Animation NC II, Machining NC I & NC II, Automotive Servicing NC I, Welding Carbon Steel Plates and Pipes using SMAW Leading to Welding NC II, Masonry NC II, Plumbing NC II, and Carpentry NC II. In October 2009, Engr. Michael V. Benavidez took over the department. Being an experienced professional, respected and a dignified leader, he guided the department in its several endeavors. Faculty development programs and researches were strengthened; curriculum and instruction, and the other areas of concern in the department were also improved further. He also introduced the Outcomes-Based-Education in the college. It was during his term when the BS CS program was granted the Candidate Status for PACUCOA Accreditation in 2010. Year 2011 was a success in the department. In early 2011, a BS IE alumnus, Engr. Helen Kaye T. Layco, obtained the 10th place for the Industrial Engineering Certification given by PIIE. A BS Civil Engineering student was elected as the President for United Nations Youth Association of the Philippines in August

2011, and represented the country in the “International Symposium in Volunteerism as Catalyst for Nation Building” in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia in December 2011. International research and paper presentations were also strengthened in this year. In September 2011, Prof. Audrey Lyle dM. Diego, Engr. Jeremias C. Esperanza, Prof. Marc P. Laureta, Prof. Paul Vincent L. Reyes, Prof. Irysh Paulo R. Tipay, and Prof. Albert A. Vinluan authored and presented papers in the First International Conference on Using Information Technology in Education at Chulalongkorn University, and in King Moncut University, Bangkok, Thailand. While in November 2011, Dr. Luzale D. Henson, Dr. Luisito C. Hagos, and Engr. Rosanna A. Villapando authored and presented their papers in Malaysia. In October 4, 2011, CET formalized its Academe-Industry Linkages, wherein the department partnered with reputable industries in realizing the need to expose the students in real-world experiences and applications, especially for their On-the-Job Training. These companies include: Asia-Pacific Form and Structure Inc., ATX Global Solutions and Consulting Inc., Eagle Broadcasting Corporation, Fujitsu Ten, Globe, HyperWorx IT Solutions Company, IBM, National Power Corporation, Philippine National IT Standards (PhilNITS) Foundation, and Webcast Technologies Inc. In December 2011, the Computer Science department became one of the Top Performing Schools in the country for IBM Database 2 Certification Exam. In February 2012, the BS Computer Science program was visited by PACUCOA for its Formal Accreditation. To cater the growing needs of the department, CET, together with the Technical Education and Skills Development Center (TESDC), inaugurated the Engineering Workshops and TESDC Training Laboratories in May 10, 2012. It was also during this year when the department implemented the new curriculum not only to comply with the CHED CMOs, but also to respond with the dynamic needs of the industry
