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). Two decades later, it started acting as a basic education school and was renamed Industrial Lyceum of Curitiba (Portuguese: Liceu Industrial de Curitiba) in 1937. 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 (, 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 (, shortened UTFPR). It still acts as a technical high school, classified as the best of Paraná, according to the Brazilian education index ENEM. And today is the best federal university in the state according to the Ministry of Education (MEC). == Degrees ==
