If destiny is against the beating of my heart, how unblessed i am of this damn life of mine; for the only reason for me to raise up and live again seems so far and unreachable. after the terrible storm which took away my emotions, i found you and thought, you would be the reason; reason for me to keep goin' despite of the burden i carry with a wounded bleeding heart seeking for a cure. you were the only star i saw in the darkest night; you were the only flower i saw on this never ending desert. you were the only light i saw among this emptiness you must be the one i've been lookin' for... but i tremble, will i able to reach you? you're so near yet so far; all i can do is look at you and see you smile and i'm cured..if only the next star falls...

ZSCMST: Well-equipped for Excellence

ZSCMST continues to live with its goal of providing the best quality education and training to its students. Its standard and quality of education is comparable to the other known fisheries schools of the country. But, it has provided this kind of education at an amazingly affordable cost.

Throughout the years, it has produced competent graduates who have made the society and the country proud. This institution offers academic and non-academic programs and the best breed of professors and educators that help mold students to become academically competent, socially aware and active, spiritually fit, and morally right.

They value their commitment in serving the country and their fellowmen, especially the poorest in the society. They fight for the truth, for justice, and for equality. They strongly live with the institution’s dream - to embrace excellence!

Challenging and Fun Learning

Studying in ZSCMST is both challenging and fun. With students struggling to get a good education, complying with the admission requirements is a competition. In this institution, you are not judged by your bank account statements nor your annual family income. You are judged with what’s inside your brain, how you deal with people, and where you want to take your future.

Students in ZSCMST enjoy the goodness of life through learning and exploring many things. The nationally acclaimed professors put students to the test by giving them educational activities that prepare them to survive in the real world and bring out the best in them. At ZSCMST, you can truly say that learning is fun.

Getting ready for a Career

As Charles Darwin would say, “In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment.” ZSCMST prepares its students to compete and succeed in the professional world. They face the world with conviction and are equipped with excellent work ethics.

Students are given a chance to step into the career world through on-the-job-training programs. Students experience a life in the workforce. This opportunity allows them to showcase their skills and abilities, at the same time provides a great avenue for future employers to recognize their full potential.

Listening to the Society’s Call

It is believed that in order to learn, one must explore the vast horizon and the outside world. The ZSCMSTs’ commitment to the society pushes them to learn things beyond the four-cornered rooms.

They openly reach out hands to the less privileged and the needy. They participate in activities that promote social transformations and world peace. They do not fear to seek for the truth and fight for justice.

Being socially active enables ZSCMST to practice their rights - the right to be heard and the right to express. They truly respond to the call of making this place a better world to live in.

Quality Education for a better Mindanao

ZSCMST, together with its new administration, faculty, students, and alumni, continuously work to achieve its mission of providing quality education for marine sciences and technology development in Mindanao with its diverse cultures through relevant programs in instruction, research, extension, and community involvement.

The institution shall never cease to produce competent graduates who can lead the nation to progress, citizens who can make a difference by touching other people’s lives, and people who are set to excel.

We don't accept the best and the brightest, we make them!

Saying I do
Is more than saying I love you
It goes beyond describing how my love is true
Because words are not enough to express my love for you.

Saying I do
Is like saying I am here for you
That I am ready to see what the future may bring
Because we are together in everything.

Saying I do
Is saying I am now complete because of you
That the pieces of the puzzle called "my life"
Becomes a beautiful picture called "our love".

And now I am saying "I DO"
As I walk down the aisle with you
This is a lifetime promise that I will hold
A promise I make until we grow old.

Sa simula’y kayhirap mong mahagilap

Tila ka isang pabango sa tuwina ko’y nalalanghap

Ni hindi pinagpalang makita

Bahagyang anyo’y namuo sa aking dalita

Habang lumilipas ang panahon

Unti-unting nahihinuha hanggang sa maglaon

Natuklasang puso sayo’y namamangha

At tila ba’y hikbi nito’y iyong tawa

Gaya ng aking nakaraan

Mabilis itong dumaan

Bigla na lamang nagising

Ikaw, sa puso ko’y nakasulsi

Maraming araw ang nagdaan,

Laging hangad ika’y aking mamataan,

Maraming pagkakataon ang lumipas,

Sadya ngang tibok sayo’y nakakumpas

Di mo’ko pinapansin

Lahat na ata’y tinangkang gawin

‘ba’t ba siya na lang lagi?

Kahit ako naman ang iyong nasasagi?

Lumilipas ang panahon

Nararamdaman sayo’y muling umaahon

Sapat nang mga titig mo,

Higit na ang tinig mo

Tangan mo na ang puso ko

Wag lang ang inspirasyon ko

Hayaang lihim kitang pagmasdan

Pag’di ka niya sinusundan

‘kala ko, masakit ang umibig nang di iniibig

Umiiyak sa bawat pananabik

Yun pala’y ang makisalo sa mahal ng kaibigan

Nagdurugo sa tuwing ka’y hinahagkan

Mahal kita!

Pagkat kaw katuparan ng buhay ko!

Pero hamak na mas mahal ko siya!

Ang KAIBIGAN na siyang buhay ko!

ParadOx of Our Time

"The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways but narrower viewpoints. We spend more but have less; we buy more but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more convenience but less time.

We have more degrees but less sense; more knowledge but less judgment; more experts, yet more problems; more medicines but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. “We talk too much, love too seldom and have too often. We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to life but not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space, but not inner space. We’ve done larger things, but not better things. We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We’ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.

We write more, but learn less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships.

These are the days of two incomes but more divorce; fancier houses but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw-away morality, one night stands, overweight bodies and pills that do everything: from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you and a time to share this insight, or just ignore.

Remember: spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart, and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember to say, “I LOVE YOU” to your partner and loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment, for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away"...
