HILTI Philippines Inc. has strengthened its support for engineering education by donating advanced surveying equipment to the University of the Philippines (UP). The company donated four rotating laser level units to the UP Department of Geodetic Engineering and one rotating laser level of the same model to the UP Institute of Civil Engineering. These instruments will be used to enhance instruction, laboratory exercises, and field training for students in both departments.

The UP Department of Geodetic Engineering expressed its gratitude for the donation, noting that the rotating lasers will significantly improve hands-on learning in surveying, construction layout, and geospatial measurements. The additional equipment is expected to help students gain practical experience with industry-grade tools, better preparing them for professional practice.

Similarly, the UP Institute of Civil Engineering conveyed its appreciation to HILTI Philippines Inc., highlighting the value of the rotating laser in civil engineering applications such as leveling, alignment, and construction monitoring. The donation supports the Institute’s commitment to providing students with modern technologies that reflect current industry standards.

HILTI is a global leader in providing innovative tools, technologies, software, and services to the construction and engineering industries. Known for its focus on quality, safety, and productivity, HILTI works closely with industry and academic partners to advance engineering practice and education. Through initiatives such as this donation, HILTI Philippines Inc. demonstrates its commitment to contributing to capacity building and the development of future Filipino engineers.
