Philippine Women’s University and Philippine Normal University Now Powered by GoWiFi
Students are among the heaviest internet users in the Philippines, particularly for study and research purposes, and of course, for surfing the web, hanging out with friends via social media, streaming their favorite shows or movies or trying the latest apps. The modern learning experience also entails faculty and staff to go online to learn and adapt to the latest teaching methods, classroom interaction techniques, instruction tools, and learning modules.
To provide more school communities quality access to the internet, Philippine Normal University (PNU) and Philippine Women's University (PWU) sealed a partnership with GoWiFi.
GoWiFi, the country's largest WiFi service will be available within the campuses of said universities within the year. By having GoWiFi available inside these educational institutions, students and teachers alike are assured of free, high-quality data connectivity that they can access any time of the day, whether for studying, research, or even for leisure purposes or interaction with co-students and faculty peers.
