The University of Santo Tomas College of Information and Computing Sciences (CICS) formally established on 2014 and was formerly known as UST IICS (Institute of Information and Computing Sciences) with its separation as an independent academic unit from the Faculty of Engineering. Its programs trace their histories to the College of Science (for Computer Science), College of Commerce and Business Administration (for Information Systems), and the Faculty of Engineering (for Information Technology).[3]
In July 2021, the university announced that it is now officially called the College of Information and Computing Sciences after the approval of the university's board of trustees.[4]

Facilities
editThe UST College of Information and Computing Sciences initially resided in the Roque Ruaño Building before relocating to the Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati Building in 2019.[5]
Currently, the Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati Building, located in the southeast next to the University of Santo Tomas campus and connected by a link bridge, houses the UST College of Information and Computing Sciences on its 18th through 20th floors. The UST Senior High School also shares the building's 10th through 15th floors.
The Miguel de Benavides Library also has a branch in its sixth floor, which is exclusively for UST Senior High School students.[6][7]
Last August 9, 2023, a satellite library named BiblioTechAI was launched to aid CICS students in their studies and also serve as a space of recreation.[8]
The Frassati building serves as the hub for various departments and centers within UST, including the UST Senior High School, College of Information and Computing Sciences, Educational Technology Center, Santo Tomas e-Services Providers, and TOMASInno Center. It boasts classrooms, laboratories, a two-story library, a gymnasium, an auditorium, and additional amenities.[9]
