UEL Will Open 3,000 Spots in Distance Undergraduate and Specialization Courses
The State University of Londrina (UEL) is about to take a big step in distance education, with the opening of 3,000 spots in distance Undergraduate and Specialization courses. This announcement was made by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (Capes) and the Open University System of Brazil (UAB), maintained by the Federal Government.
A Promising Future for Distance Education at UEL
UEL continues to grow and innovate. For the years 2025 and 2026, the university will have a total of 3,000 spots distributed among various courses, both undergraduate and specialization. Among these spots, 1,200 are for seven courses already approved by the institution:

How to Enroll
Are you interested in one of the 3,000 spots in distance Undergraduate and Specialization courses offered by UEL? Here’s what you need to do:
All information about the courses, notices, and registration deadlines will be published on the official websites. Stay tuned so you don’t miss any updates. Usually, the selection processes require documents such as ID, taxpayer ID, proof of residence, academic transcripts, and previous diplomas. Check the specific notice [LINK] to find out which documents you will need.
Registration will be done online, through the UEL portal. Follow the instructions in the notice and fill out all fields carefully. If there is a registration fee, make sure to pay it within the established deadline. Failure to pay may invalidate your registration.
After the registration period ends, wait for the results to be announced. Information about enrollment and the start of classes will be communicated later.
A Historic Milestone
Pedro Paulo Ayrosa, institutional coordinator of UAB at UEL and coordinator of Nead/UEL, celebrated the achievement. “This is the first time that UEL has a record number of spots approved for federal funding from Capes for undergraduate and postgraduate courses and national projects. This is a historic milestone,” declared Ayrosa.
This achievement reflects the joint effort of Paraná’s universities and a democratic articulation to identify the demands of institutions and municipalities in the state. Today, Paraná has 64 UAB poles distributed across all regions.
The Journey of Distance Education at UEL
The UAB System, created by the Federal Government in 2006 and linked to Capes, aims to qualify basic education teachers, democratize access to higher education, and promote municipal development through professional training. UEL, through Nead, began its activities in 2009 and integrated into the UAB System in 2011.
Since then, Nead/UEL has already graduated approximately 3,000 students in various specialization and degree courses. Currently, it serves around 550 students in courses such as Teaching Degree in Computer Science, Technologist in Public Management, Specialization in Information Technology in Education, and Specialization in Digital Education.
With the opening of 3,000 spots in distance Undergraduate and Specialization courses, UEL consolidates itself as an institution committed to democratizing and ensuring quality education. This initiative not only expands access to higher education but also strengthens the training of professionals across Brazil. It is a promising new chapter in the history of the State University of Londrina.
