"To offer quality yet affordable IT education most especially to poor and deserving students." This has been the noble objective of AICS since the very start of its operation way back in 1996. The vision of Mr. Manuel T. Asis, Chairman of the Board and President of AICS, is to let the youth of today learn and enjoy the magnificent growth of Information Technology. It was in November, 1996 when the first school of AICS was opened in Fairview, Quezon City. It offers 2-year Computer Science Course, Computer Technology Course and other computer related short programs. On its first semester it had only 50 students enrolled in Computer Science course. However, the number increased to more than 600 students enrolled on the second year of its operation and has reached and maintained more than 1,500 up to the present. From 1997 to the present, AICS paves the way to spread its thrust growing to numerous branches strategically located within Metro Manila and Luzon areas. In the year 2001, AICS Caloocan took a bolder step by introducing and offering BS Computer Science, a continuing degree course for its 2-year computer science graduates. This was followed by AICS Commonwealth in 2008. To date, AICS is offering 2 more BS degree programs, BS Computer Engineering, a continuing course for its 2-year Computer Technology graduates and BS Entrepreneurship a continuing course for its 2-year Business Information Management graduates. True to its vision and mission goal, Asian Institute of Computer Studies continuously opens its door to the youth who wants to experience and satisfy their thirst and hunger for knowledge particularly in the field of IT. AICS is always on the lookout for potential areas for expansion and reach out to more poor and deserving students desirous to alleviate their status in life. AICS promise to persevere in maintaining and upholding quality education at its best! This is the pledge of AICS for almost 2 decade of existence. AICS vows to continue and extend its educational services and take part in building up the future generation in the 21st century.
