Both are in-person courses, lasting three years (six semesters), offering 25 annual spots and conferring the title of Technologist. Academic activities take place at the two campus units, Cidade Alta (UCA) and Bom Princípio (UBP), in the afternoon and evening shifts, compatible with the routine of those already in the job market.
