UP-ICE unveils marker for David M. Consunji Theater
July 9, 2019
The University of the Philippines Institute of Civil Engineering (UP-ICE) in Diliman, Quezon City recently unveiled the marker for the 260-seat David M. Consunji Theater which was named in honor of the late founder of the DMCI Group of Companies.
The unveiling of the marker coincided with the 2019 UP-ICE Recognition Rites and Graduation Dinner last June 26.
The P9.2 million-worth modern theater inside the UP-ICE main building has served as a venue of research colloquia, seminars, and student assemblies since its inauguration in November 2017.
The theater was named after the late Engr. David M. Consunji, one of the institute’s esteemed alumni and acknowledged “Grandfather of Philippine Construction Industry.”
It is part of various facilities and scholarships donated by DMCI Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries to the UP-ICE that include professorial chair and teaching grants, lecture room, and canteen.
DMCI Homes and Dacon Corporation together with Friends of Engr. David M. Consunji also donated in 2018 P7.5 million for the setting up of UP ICE’s computational laboratory which started operations last academic year.
