Historical Background of WVSU
In 1954, through Republic Act No. 375, the B.S. in Education major in
Elementary Education was offered. This propelled the school to become a
pioneer and premier teacher-training institution in Western Visayas.
The period from 1974 to the early 1980s was marked with rapid
growth witnessing the establishment of the Schools of Medicine (1975),
Agriculture (1976), and Nursing (1977). The doctoral program of the
Graduate School was likewise introduced in 1977. The B.S. Forestry, B.S.
Biological Science and A.B. Mass Communications programs were offered
in 1981.
WVSU Student Handbook F 1
On January 27, 1986, by virtue of the Presidential Decree No. 2019,
the West Visayas State College became the West Visayas State University,
integrating the Iloilo National College of Agriculture (INCA in Lambunao,
Iloilo) into its system. In 1987, the University acquired the Don Benito V.
Lopez Memorial Hospital, which became the WVSU Hospital, a 150-bed
tertiary health care facility, teaching and training hospital. As early as 1986,
strict observance of the trilogy of functions became evident in the University
and in 1988, the office of Research and Non-Formal Education was created,
followed by the creation of the Office of Extension.
Servicing and support units are operating in the main campus. They
are the Language Center, Review Center, Statistical Data and Processing
Center, Center for Professional Development and Continuing Education,
Publishing House, Drop-In Center and the Teachers Center.
