In total, there are 450 places distributed equally among the three courses, which will begin at the end of November this year.
The big difference in this project is its ease: in addition to being online, the selection of vacancies will be done by electronic draw, guaranteeing equal opportunities for all. candidates who complete the basic requirements. This action is carried out in partnership with the Brazilian Open University System (UAB), strengthening the FEDERAL INSTITUTE's commitment to democratizing access to quality education.
