Universidade Tiradentes-Unit is a private higher education institution based in Aracaju, in the Sergipe region of Brazil, focused on education administration programs. Its roots go back to 1962 as a modest college and it was designated a university in 1994 by Brazil's Ministry of Education, becoming the first private university in Sergipe at that time. The university operates from its main campus and extends its reach through a presence in Pernambuco via Centro Universitário Tiradentes, along with distance education centers in other regional states. It emphasizes up-to-date infrastructure, providing laboratories with current technology and libraries whose collections are regularly updated to support teaching, research, and extension activities. Its offerings include specialization programs, MBAs, and postgraduate programs at the master's and doctoral levels, all recognized by Capes. The institution's mission centers on expanding access to quality education and developing professionals to contribute to regional development, guided by founder Professor Jouberto Uchôa de Mendonça.
