[edit] History
It was first founded in 1910, as the School of Apprentices and Artificers of Paraná (Portuguese: Escola de Aprendizes e Artífices do Paraná). Two decades later, it started acting as a basic education school and was renamed Industrial Lyceum of Curitiba (Portuguese: Liceu Industrial de Curitiba). Later it was instituted together with federal industrial schools, renamed Technical School of Curitiba (Portuguese: Escola Técnica de Curitiba) and then, in 1959, to Federal Technical School of Paraná (Portuguese: Escola Técnica Federal do Paraná). In 1978 it became a Federal Center of Technological Education.[1]
On October 7, 2005, president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva transformed it into the first Federal University of Technology in Brazil. It still acts as a technical high school, classified as the best of Paraná, according the Brazilian education index ENEM.
