History

The origins go back to the School of Arts and Crafts (EAO), where in 1913 began the courses of Engineering. Then an institution called School of Industrial Engineers (EII) was created. This institution was destined to give curricula to technicians graduated from industrial and technical schools, possessed the specialties of Electricity, Mechanics, Chemistry, Metallurgy and Mines of which the departments of these specialties descended. In 1947 the Technical University of the State (UTE) was created, which was the union of the EAO, mining and industrial school of various places of Chile and the IBE. But both institutions coexisted within the University, until in 1972 formally joined the IBE and EAO forming the Faculty of Engineering. In 1958 the Vespertin School of Construction and Topography was transferred to the university, from which the Department of Geographical Engineering and the Department of Engineering in Civil Works descended. In 1972 the Department of Industrial Engineering was created and in 1980 the Department of Computer Engineering. Departments Programs
