Malvar Campus

The former Jose P. Laurel Polytechnic College (JPLPC), a largely vocational school located in a 3.26 hectare property in Poblacion, Malvar, Batangas, was incorporated into Batangas State University by virtue of Republic Act 9045 in 2001. It is the third largest campus in the university. Since Malvar is just 68 km south of Manila and is conveniently accessible by STAR tollway, it is part of the Manila conurbation, making it prime for urbanization and shared industrial growth. The LIMA Technology Center is also located in Malvar; it is an industrial park and a potential world-class business hub and commercial destination owned by the real estate arm of the Aboitiz Group, one of the country’s biggest business conglomerates.
