Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) has published its World University Rankings for 2024. This year, the University of the Philippines is ranked at 101-150 in the world for Archaeology.
New paper published in Annales de Paléontologie. The ancient predatory guild of Luzon (Philippines) remains obscure. A fragmentary deer tibia with bite marks from a Pleistocene paleochannel deposit in La Union Province opens the possibility of a Crocodile or another yet unknown predator as responsible agent.
I presented my paper titled "What Can Historical Linguists Learn from Archaeologists: Some Reflections from Teaching Lingg 150" at the 2024 installment of the Binalot Talks.

The updated curricula added six (6) units to the existing programs with the inclusion of Archaeo 220 (Philippine Preshistoric Archaeology, 3 units) and Archaeo 260 (Archaeological Resource Management, 3 units) to the core courses. Aside from changing the program requirements, the curricular update also includes the institution of a new course and revision of existing courses.
A major course revision is the splitting of Archaeo 242 Archaeobiological Remains, which covers both botanical and faunal materials, into two: a renamed Archaeo 242, Archaeozoological Remains and a newly-...
CE 297 Special Topics on Finite Element Method for Structural Dynamics (Graduate-level course) Offered: 1st Semester AY 2023-2024
This course introduced the application of the finite element method (FEM) to model the behavior of structures or components subjected to dynamic loads. The course covered the code implementation of two- and three-dimensional FEM together with eigenvalue analysis and time integration methods in a working program, which can be used in verification and validation studies of linear-elastic problems. The topics...
