Federal Centers of Technological Education

Entrance of CEFET-CE, campus Fortaleza, Ceará.

The Federal Centers of Technological Education (Portuguese: "Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica", shortened CEFET) are Brazilian educational institutes which are directly linked to the Ministry of Education. They are focused on high school, technical high school and academic degrees linked to technology. Many of them offer academic degrees, just like universities.

After December 28, 2008, most of them were transformed into Federal Institutes of Education, Science and Technology.[1]
