CvSU Research Thrusts and Agenda 

CEIT Research Agenda

In relation to the University Research and Extension agenda, the College of Engineering and Information Technology   formulated its own Integrated Research, Development, and Extension Agenda and Programs (CEIT-IRDEAP).  Out of the CEIT-IRDEAP, the College has developed the following objectives in implementing its research programs:

• design and develop innovative information and communications technologies;
• design and develop appropriate technologies for industrial and agricultural applications;
• develop technologies on the utilization, protection and conservation of agricultural land and freshwater supply in Cavite;
• prepare land use and infrastructure development plans of the College’s service area;
• conduct public health and wellness assessment;
• design plan and system for water and wastewater management;
• evaluate and promote new and renewable energy technologies;
• design and implement systems that will help improve the office operations;
• provide expertise in the promotion and preservation of cultural heritage sites; and
• enhance dissemination and adoption of appropriate technologies developed in the College.

Department of Agricultural and Food Engineering  (DAFE) Research  Agenda

The Department of Agricultural and Food Engineering‘s research program/ agenda/ activities are based on the knowledge, skills, and expertise acquired through the Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering curriculum at the University.  This approach is complemented by a strong understanding of the requirements and obstacles faced by clients, and available resources, which serve as guiding factors in the department's pursuit of innovative solutions. These are also anchored on the University, regional, and national development thrusts and directions.

In accordance with the CEIT-IRDEAP, the researches of the faculty members and students of the ABE section are applications of the courses covered in the four major field of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering namely: AB Power and Machinery Engineering, AB Land and Water Resources Engineering, AB Process Engineering, and AB Structures Engineering. With these, research of BSABE program focus on:
