Luzon Science Consortium
Encyclopedia
The Luzon Science Consortium was organized by the founding member institution namely Central Luzon State University
(CLSU), Cagayan State University
(CSU) and Isabela State University
(ISU) known as CLSU-CSU-ISU Science Consortium on September 17, 1982. The prime objective of consortium was to improve science education in Luzon
upon the advise of the Science Education Institute of the DOST
under the Institution Building Program (IBP) of the then National Science and Technology Authority (NSTA)- Science Promotion Institute.
In 1991, the Nueva Viscaya State Institute of Technology (NVSIT), Nueva Viscaya State Polytechnic College (NVSPC) and Quirino State College
(QSC) joined its roster of membership with high motivation that their science programs would also be enriched. In the same year, the presidents and representatives of the six member-institutions formally changed the name CLSU-CSU-ISU Science Consortium with acronym LSC.
The Luzon Science Consortium since then has carved a name in the four regions in Luzon
namely Regions I,II, III and IV as a prestigious organization that promotes science education among students and faculty of state universities and colleges.
