Caraga State University joins DOST’s Mindanao-wide conference, exhibiting some of the innovative outputs and technology of its select Research, Development, and Innovation (RDI) centers on May 6, 2025, at the Activity Center, HERO Learning Commons.

CSU served as DOST’s venue partner for the Zonal conference, which united researchers, industrial partners, government representatives, and innovators from Regions 11 (Davao), 12 (SOCCSKSARGEN), and 13 (Caraga). 

Celebrating the region’s immense pool of innovation, the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) launched the first National Innovation Day in Caraga on April 21, 2025, featuring select innovation facilities at Caraga State University.

Broadening its contribution towards sustainable mining practices, Caraga State University obtained a 1.5 M grant from the Department of Science and Technology - Caraga Region to lead the development of a mulberry demonstration farm implementing biofertilizers and organic amendments to improve soil quality and health.

Three BS in Information Technology students of Caraga State University advanced to the final round of the BPI-DOST Innovation Awards 2024, a competition aiming to help resolve community issues through science, technology, and innovation.

Golden Paddlers Rhea M. Bete, Angelo A. Galope, and Francis John Saul M. Tin-ao of the College of Computing and Information Sciences (CCIS) earned 60,000 as a cash prize. The trio will present their final project in the awarding ceremony in Makati City this December.
