DOH-Accredited Water Quality Testing
The CPU Water Analysis Laboratory was conceptualized through a proposal to the CPU ChE Alumni Association Toronto Chapter, gathering support to establish the water laboratory. Through the seed money from the Association CAED's Center of Development Fund, and a grant from DOST, the laboratory was established.
On January 10, 2006, the CPU Water Analysis Laboratory became fully operational with DOH accreditation. It is a trusted service provider for water districts, hospitals, dialysis centers, restaurants, fast food centers, local industries, hotels, water refilling stations, and households. The laboratory is under the College of Engineering.
