American invasion era

The Bulacan State University started as an intermediate school in 1904. It was established during the early years of the American occupation by virtue of Act 74 of the Philippine Commission in 1901, which created the then Department of Public Instruction with the mandate to establish schools in every pueblo (town) of the country and reorganize those already existing. Instructions in the intermediate schools established during that time were supplemented with trade or industrial instruction.

In 1907, Bulacan Governor Teodoro Sandiko started to look for funds to put up a trade school for his constituents. His efforts paid off when the intermediate school became the Bulacan Trade School in 1909. The school had an American principal and five teachers, four of whom are Americans, the so-called Thomasites.

Upon the implementation in 1918 of the Philippine Autonomy Act passed by the U.S. Congress in 1916, the Bulacan Trade School was formally turned-over to the Filipinos with Mr. Basilio Abiado as its first Filipino principal.

Japanese occupation era

In 1945, after repairing the damage suffered during the Second World War; the school reopened with a few hand tools and materials donated by the U.S. army stationed in the provincial capitol. With the steady increase in enrollment, more buildings were constructed. In 1949, the United States Information Service (USIS) donated two Quonset huts, which were used as shops and classrooms.

Philippine independence

In 1951, the two-storey related subjects building was constructed with funds from the War Damage Rehabilitation Fund, and in 1952, the one-storey Girls' Trades building was built with half of the cost of construction was donated by the school's Parent-Teacher Association.

On June 20, 1953, the school was nationalized under R.A. NO. 908 and became the Bulacan National Trade School.

By virtue of Republic Act 1800, the Bulacan National Trade School was converted into the Bulacan School of Arts and Trades (BSAT) on July 1, 1957. The school offered the two-year post-secondary courses with specializations in automotive, machine shop and girls' trade courses.

By virtue of Republic Act 4470, the Bulacan School of Arts and Trades (BSAT) was converted into the Bulacan College of Arts and Trades (BCAT) on June 19, 1965. The college began to expand its technical and technician course offerings by adding shop specialization.

In 1967, it offered the four-year Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education (BSIE) with majors in drafting, machine shop practice, woodworking and automotive, cosmetology, electronics and electricity.

From 1968 to 1973, the five-year engineering programs were added to the courses offered by the college.

In 1977, the college started offering graduate program, the Master of Arts in Teaching with majors in technical and vocational subjects.

In 1983, the college continued to expand its curricular offerings and develop its facilities to meet the needs of the growing student population. The teacher education curriculum added more major fields of specialization in secondary education. New majors in the engineering program were also added. Doctoral program was offered and new majors in the master's program were introduced.

Conversion into State University

On December 30, 1993, President Fidel V. Ramos signed House Bill 461 into law, known as Republic Act 7665, which converted the Bulacan College of Arts and Trades into the Bulacan State University.

The conversion into a State University provided more impetus to the administration to implement a wide range of institutional development programs, which included upgrading of academic qualifications of faculty members, streamlining the curricular programs by creating colleges and institutes, securing state-of-the-art instructional facilities, physical plant development and expansion, and broadening access to education by establishing additional satellite campuses.

Recent history

In 2002, a landmark agreement between the university and the Integrated Bar of the Philippines, Bulacan Chapter, was made to establish the BSI-J – Marcelo H. Del Pilar College of Law. The Marcelo H. Del Pilar Law Foundation, Inc. was created to support the program of the college. The move was hailed by The Technical Panel for Legal Education of the Commission on Higher Education as innovative being the first of its kind in the Philippines. The first batch of graduates of the college who took the 2006 Bar Examinations garnered an impressive passing average of 42.8 percent, higher than the national passing average of 30.6 percent.

In 2004, the university started to gain educational agreements with some nations in the Asia Pacific region namely in China, South Korea, and Hong Kong.

In 2007, the Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities (AACCUP), a member of Asia-Pacific Quality Network (APQN) and International Network of Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education (INQAAHE), granted Level III accreditation status to the elementary, secondary and industrial education programs of the College of Education. BulSU was the first State University in Central Luzon to be awarded a Level III Accreditation in its Education programs by the AACCUP.

In 2008, the university produced outstanding performance in licensure and bar examinations: 90% passing average in the June Nurse Licensure Examinations, 87% passing average in the November Nurse Licensure Examination and 32% passing average in the Bar Examinations. BulSU also ranked 3rd in the top schools for the Electronics and Communication Engineer Licensure Examination.

The university has been consistently performing well in the National Board Examinations with results exceeding the National Passing Rate and has produced individuals who were among the top performers in the board examinations.[2][3][4][5][6][7]

The university recently received its ISO 9001:2015 Certification, passed the Level II Institutional Accreditation while 50 academic programs of the different Colleges are already accredited by the Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities (AACCUP).
