Far Eastern University (Filipino: Pamantasan ng Malayong Silanganan), also referred to by its acronym FEU, is a private research non-sectarian university in Manila, Philippines. Created by the merger of Far Eastern College and the Institute of Accounts, Business and Finance, FEU became a university in 1934 during the term of its first president, Nicanor Reyes Sr.[2]
The first accountancy school for Filipinos, the university has expanded its course offerings to the arts and sciences, architecture, fine arts, education, engineering, computer studies, graduate studies, tourism and hotel management, law, nursing, and medicine.[3][4] FEU has seven campuses located in Metro Manila, Cavite and Rizal.[5][6] It offers programs from elementary, secondary, tertiary, to graduate school.
FEU Manila comprises several institutes that offer specific programs. The accountancy program, along with its other undergraduate programs, have received the highest Level IV accreditation from the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA). The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) has also granted it as a Center of Development in Business Administration and a Center of Excellence for Teacher Education.[7]
FEU's campus is noted for a number of historical Art Deco buildings preserved from the first half of the 20th century.[8] FEU ranks 11th among Philippine universities, 117th in Southeast Asia, and in the 701-750 bracket of the QS Asia Rankings.[9]
