    Students are susceptible to accidents, violence, injuries, and other health-related concerns, which are bound to happen anytime and anywhere. With a large student population that exceeds 10,000 students in a regular school year, Central Luzon State University (CLSU) is facing several challenge. Thus, the university is struggling to respond quickly and effectively to student needs, emergencies, and safety concerns within the campus premises. While the Infirmary and University Security Force (USF) are available to handle health and security issues, the lack of accessible communication channels for students to seek assistance during emergencies remains a significant concern. Given this notion, this study was designed to develop and implement an Emergency Alert and Response System for CLSU. The system comprised of two distinctive platforms: a mobile application that enables students and other users to send emergency alerts swiftly and effectively, to which users can either utilize their load balance or internet connection to make calls and send alert messages; and a software application dedicated to receiving notifications regarding emergencies or accidents. This software application is exclusively accessible to the University Response Team, consisting of the CLSU Infirmary and University Security Force (USF), ensuring timely and appropriate responses to critical situations. The system introduces new methods and procedures to CLSU that will help improve emergency response time, promote sustainability, and ensure the safety and well- being of the students, faculty members, and staff.
