The bill creating the institution was approved by the Chamber of Deputies, by the Federal Senate, and, on December 29, 2008, by the Brazilian president of the Republic. It was published in the Diário Oficial da União (Federal Official Gazette) on December 30, 2008.

Creation

edit

On July 16, 2008, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva signed Bill 3775/2008,[1] proposing the creation of 38 federal institutes of education, science, and technology in Brazil. The Bill was approved in the National Congress and signed into law by the President on December 29, 2008.[2] The purpose of the institutes was to enable a large number of students to train in the fields of science, technology, and science-and-technology pedagogy, strengthening Brazil's capacity to develop cutting-edge technical and technological solutions to a range of challenges, and implement those solutions to benefit the wider community.

The Bill provided that half the enrollment slots would be allocated to students taking intermediate-level technical courses as part of an integrated curriculum.

For those students pursuing higher education, the emphasis was to be on advanced courses in engineering and other technological disciplines. Bachelor's degrees were to be offered in physics, chemistry, mathematics, and biology. In addition, the institutes were directed to encourage students to study educational methodologies that would equip them to teach mechanics, electrical engineering and informatics. Students were also to be encouraged to pursue licensure in specialized areas of technological and professional expertise.

Under the Bill, each federal institute was to comprise several campi, and develop annual budget proposals for each campus and program within its jurisdiction.[2] Each federal institute was to have its own governing body (“Superior Council”), which, as to its assigned geographic district, would have independent authority to create and discontinue courses and grant diplomas. The institutes were also to have a role n accrediting and certifying professional-license-granting organizations.
