The faculty of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - Mid La Union Campus (DMMMSU-MLUC) perform their duties and responsibilities along the University’s four-fold mandate. In this regard, this study conducted quality assessment of the faculty’s profile, teaching effectiveness, and involvement in research, extension, and production, as well as capabilities and constraints. The findings serve as a basis of the formulation of inputs to a five-year faculty development plan. The study used descriptive research with questionnaire to gather data from 187 faculty members. The statistical tools used were frequency counts, percentage, and weighted mean. The study found out that the females were four percent more than the males; majority had MA/MS degrees, specialized in the arts and sciences. Moreover, the faculty members were very satisfactory in instruction, moderately involved in research and in extension, and slightly involved in production. Their capabilities were in instruction, while their constraints were in research, extension, and production.
