It is notable for producing famous alumni inclucing its Dean Asuncion Raymundo - a national scientist. It is also notable for conducting most of the general education courses in UPLB.

The College dates back from the UP College of Agriculture as a conglomeration of the Department of Humanities, Department of Chemistry, Department of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics, Department of Zoology, Department of Life Sciences, Department of Agricultural Botany and Department of Social Sciences. In 1983, three science institutes were reorganized from the then departments: Institute of Chemistry, Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Physics and the Institute of Biological Sciences. The Computer Science and Statistics Divisions detached from the IMSP to create the Institute of Computer Science and Institute of Statistics.

The CAS Main Building is popularly known as Humanities Building since it served as the Humanities building and Main Library from the UP College of Agriculture. The building houses the CAS Dean's Office (2nd floor), College Secretaty's Office (1st floor) and classrooms from basement up to the third floor - conducting mostly general education classes. It's location is located in the "heart" of the campus and notable because of the Oblation Statue located in front. Because of its strategic location, its entrance ("Hum Steps") is where student activists meet.
