As part of its commitment to promote organizational efficiency and institutional integrity, Visayas State University (VSU) recently conducted an extensive re-orientation seminar-workshop on the guidelines and procedures of the offices under Administrative Services (AS) on June 4, 2026 at the RDE Hall. 

Visayas State University (VSU) achieved its highest placement yet in the 2026 Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings, climbing to the 301-400 global bracket and placing among the world’s leading universities in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. 

For generations of VSU students, completing a thesis or dissertation often meant preparing several hardbound copies before graduation. Aside from the academic work itself, students had to spend thousands of pesos on printing and binding, often at a time when they were already managing graduation expenses, job applications, board examination preparations, and other end-of-program requirements.

In a major boost to its academic infrastructure and operational resilience, the Visayas State University (VSU) received two newly completed facilities from the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Leyte 5th District Engineering Office (DEO) in a formal turn-over ceremony on June 4, 2026 at the OP Board Room, VSU Main Campus.

For many faculty members, leadership is about representing colleagues and helping address their concerns, but for Dr. Daisy P. Acoritay, the newly elected Faculty Regent of Visayas State University (VSU), this opportunity is about service and responsibility.

Every year, many cacao farmers lose a large part of their harvest because of black pod disease, one of the most destructive diseases affecting cacao farms. Once the infection spreads, entire pods rot, harvests decrease, and farmers lose both time and income.
