Most Similar Schools Locally
- Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of project management, computer vision and engineering can consider Federal Institute of Rio de Janeiro, and it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and diploma.
- Federal Institute of North Minas Gerais overlaps with this institution on project management, computer vision and engineering, so the two are easy to compare, and it is far smaller, with about 7,000 students against roughly 30,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Another national school that puts computer vision and engineering at the centre is University of São Paulo, and it also offers doctoral programmes and covers life sciences as well.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.
- Continuous Improvement, Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), Digital Twin, Engineering, Lean Manufacturing, Project Management, Research and Development, Sustainable Development
*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
