About UTEC - Northern region

Regional venues

The Northern Regional Technological Institute (RTI) is committed to becoming a reference center in the region in training and research in the area of Industry 4.0. In response to the demands of the productive sector, it offers degree courses related to Logistics, Industrial Mechatronics and Systems, and a postgraduate degree in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence. Another of its characteristics is bi-nationality: since its inception, UTEC’s northern institute has forged a strong integration with higher education institutions in southern Brazil. Currently, three of its four majors are binational.
