On the same day, a second MOA was signed between the College of Science (CoS), through the Department of Mathematics and Physics, represented by Department Head Dr. John Rafael M. Antalan, and the Department of Education (DepEd) – School Division of San Jose, represented by Dr. Veronica B. Paraguison. This agreement will facilitate the development and enhancement of science and technology education in San Jose schools.
