The Central-South Regional Technological Institute (RTI) is positioned as the “green RTI” of UTEC, as it concentrates the educational offer linked to environmental sustainability. In response to the needs of the country's productive sector, the Central-South RTI works on the development of three main pillars: water (quality, use, management and treatment of the resource), monitoring (remote sensing for water, soil and air) and clean energy (solar and wind).
In coordination with various local and national agents, the Central-South RTI is aligned to the 2030 Agenda through the following sustainable development goals (SDGs): clean water and sanitation (No. 6), affordable and non-polluting energy (No. 7), sustainable cities and communities (No. 11) and climate action (No. 13).
The Central-South RTI is located in a paradigmatic site in the city of Durazno: the property where Doctor Emilio Penza Hospital was previously situated. It has 3,500 m2 and a total capacity for 2,000 students. It has several laboratories (biotechnology and environmental microbiology; effluents; household, agricultural and industrial waste; water; geotechnologies; solar and wind energy) and rooms for environmental monitoring with high-tech equipment and application and use of satellite images.
