The school is situated at the heart of the city, near Our Lady of Atonement Church (the Baguio Cathedral), hotels, restaurants, and shopping malls.

Benjamin R. Salvosa and his wife Evangelina D. Salvosa. BCF served as the first higher learning institution in this highland city after World War II. This milestone inspired the creation of Baguio City as the educational center of the North. The college started with 156 students in teacher training and liberal arts at rented spaces in the Arevalo and the Antipolo Buildings along Session Road. The founders converted the college into a foundation as Baguio Colleges Foundation in 1967, providing access to more students in the region and the whole country. In 2003, the school became the University of the Cordilleras (UC), extending out further its services in three core areas --- to teach, to research, and to give back. The university has now grown to a complex of 10 colleges, collectively offering over 40 certificate, tertiary, graduate, and post-graduate programs, including a laboratory school for pre-school, grade school and high school, catering to around 21,000 students from the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR), and even from other regions of the country and overseas.〔http://www.uc-bcf.edu.ph/Home/About?Page=History〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「University of the Cordilleras」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
