History

On September 23, 1909, the President of Brazil, Nilo Peçanha created the Escolas de Aprendizes e Artífices (Schools of Apprentices and Artificers), in the Paraná state this school started on January 16, 1910, named Escola de Aprendizes e Artífices do Paraná (School of Apprentices and Artificers of Paraná).

Later it was instituted together with federal industrial schools, renamed Technical School of Curitiba (Portuguese: Escola Técnica de Curitiba) in 1942 and then to Federal Technical School of Paraná (Portuguese: Escola Técnica Federal do Paraná) in 1959.

In 1978 it became a Federal Center of Technological Education, and was renamed the Federal Center of Technological Education of Paraná (Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica do Paraná, shortened CEFET-PR).

On October 7, 2005, president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva transformed it into the first Federal University of Technology in Brazil, renamed Federal University of Technology – Paraná (Portuguese: Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, shortened UTFPR). It still acts as a technical high school, classified as the best of Paraná, according to the Brazilian education index ENEM.
