Second star to the right, and straight on ’til morning!
Fasten your faith, sprinkle your pixie dust, and prepare to take flight as the world of civil engineering once again rises above the clouds. Neverland calls, and only the boldest minds will soar.
The Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers – Mapúa University Student Chapter proudly presents the 15th Don Tomas Mapúa National Civil Engineering Quiz Show (DTM-NCEQS), themed “Peter Pan: The Flight to Neverland.” Assemble your brightest thinkers and fearless problem-solvers as this legendary academic battle takes place on February 5, 2026 (Thursday) at the Mapúa University – Gymnasium.
As tradition continues, the DTM-NCEQS remains the premier national quiz competition that challenges civil engineering students across the country to test their mastery, speed, and precision; proving that true engineers never stop believing in the power of knowledge.
For more than a decade, the Don Tomas Mapúa National Civil Engineering Quiz Show has been a proving ground for excellence, producing a legacy of champions from the country’s top engineering institutions. The Hall of Champions proudly features universities that have etched their names in DTM history, including Bulacan State University, University of the East, Technological University of the Philippines–Manila, University of Batangas–Lipa Campus, Far Eastern University, Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges, Don Honorio Ventura State University, and the reigning powerhouse Cebu Technological University, which claimed back-to-back victories in the 13th (2024) and 14th (2025) DTM-NCEQS. As the competition reaches its 15th year, a new chapter awaits. Will the crown remain, or will a new champion rise and claim their place in Neverland history?
