The National Institute of Physics (NIP) was established in 1983 by Presidential Executive Order No. 889[1] which transformed the Department of Physics of the College of Arts and Sciences into one of the seven research and academic institutes of the University of the Philippines Diliman - College of Science.
In 1997,[2] the NIP has been designated as a Center of Excellence by the Commission on Higher Education.[3] The research institute offers bachelor's degree, master's degree and doctorate degrees in Physics.[2] The research institute has also produced the first gravitational physicist in the Philippines.[4]
