28Misamis University Engagement with Local Government and Public Policy
Misamis University engages with local government institutions and public-sector stakeholders by providing opportunities for academic and professional expertise to contribute to discussions and understanding of local governance, legislative processes, and public policy. The University facilitates various forms of engagement through its academic units, research initiatives, professional activities, and other institutional programs.
As one documented example of this institutional engagement, an official publication of the Misamis University College of Law, “A Jam-Packed September for MU Law,” reported the participation of MU Law students in structured observations of the Local Sanggunians of Ozamiz, Oroquieta, Tangub, Lanao, and other neighboring municipalities from September 7 to 15, 2026. The activity provided members of the University community with direct exposure to local legislative proceedings and opportunities to engage with local legislative institutions and understand how policies and legislative matters are deliberated at the local level.
The same publication also documented the University's academic engagement with contemporary public-policy concerns through a webinar on Pax Silica, featuring Giovanni A. Tapang, Ph.D., Professor of Physics at the University of the Philippines National Institute of Physics, Chairperson Emeritus of AGHAM, and Convenor of the No to Pax Silica Alliance. The activity provided an academic platform for discussing an emerging policy issue involving science, technology, and public interest.
These documented activities illustrate the University's broader commitment to knowledge exchange, professional engagement, and interaction with government and public-policy institutions. The College of Law example demonstrates how one academic unit contributes to this institutional commitment by engaging with local legislative bodies and facilitating informed discussions on contemporary policy concerns.
