At NDMC, research is more than an academic pursuit — it is a mission of transformation, faith, and service. Anchored on our core values — Driven by Faith, Agility, Respect, Excellence, and Service (DARES) — our institutional research agenda charts a bold path that responds to local realities, advances the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and supports the nation’s Ambisyon Natin 2040.

As we continue to ignite a culture of inquiry, collaboration, and impact, NDMC stands as a beacon of hope — where research transforms lives, communities, and futures.

This year's issue of Alimbukad marks another milestone with two notable firsts: the publication of the Junior High School colloquium's book of abstracts and the return of the NDMC personnel-scholars' research showcase, featuring their master's and doctoral theses and dissertations.
