UP Association of Biology Majors

The University of the Philippines Association of Biology Majors (UP ABM) is a socio-academic student organization based in the UP Institute of Biology, in the College of Science. Initially formed out of the friendship of a group of Biology students, UP ABM has grown, in terms of scope and achievements, into something much greater over the past four decades.Established in the summer of 1975, UP ABM continues to uphold the academic, social and moral development the organization has instilled in its members and alumni, through its various events such as the IB Freshmen Orientation Program, BioLOGIC (an inter-high school Biology quiz bee), UPCAT tutorials, The Pencil Project (a pencil drive during UPCAT) and numerous medical, dental and tuli missions. UP ABM is also recognized as one of the College's outstanding student organizations in the past years, nominated as the University's Outstanding Student Organization seven times, and is currently the back-to-back Champion of the annual College of Science Carolfest. UP ABM is also the founding organization of the Biology Majors Alliance of the Philippines (BMAP), which was officialy recognized by the Biology Teachers Association (BIOTA) last December 15, 2007.Only a true Biology major knows what life is really about, and here in UP ABM, we don't just study life, we live it!
