The University of Northeastern Philippines (UNEP) is a private non-sectarian university located in Iriga, Camarines Sur in Bicol, Philippines.

History

The University of Northeastern Philippines was established in 1948, in the then Municipality of Iriga. It was founded by a young couple named Atty.Felix Ordas- Alfelor Sr. and Dr. Remedios Rigoroso Alfelor as a small school and was first located in a rented property in the town center. Mabini Memorial School, as it was named in the beginning, offered complete high school and degree courses in Education and Liberal Arts.

The school, in a few years, outgrew its space located downtown. The school then bought 17 hectares of land, a former dumpsite, near the town center. It then transferred into the new site and developed the campus, completing it in the early 1960s. It then was renamed Mabini College.And home of the basketball in iriga. Additional degrees were offered and school population even grew more rapidly with the diversified campus offerings.

In 1974, the school received its university charter and was finally named the University of Northeastern Philippines.[1] Four years later, the College of Law opened. It is the only law school in Iriga. Through the years the university continuously opened various programs. UNEP is considered one of the oldest universities in the Bicol Region,[2] and one of the two prestigious universities in the city.
