Federico Santa María Technical University

The Federico Santa María Technical University ((スペイン語:Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María)) (UTFSM) (or simply Santa Maria University) is a Chilean university founded in 1926 in Valparaíso, Chile. The University has campuses in Valparaiso, Viña del Mar, Santiago, Talcahuano and Rancagua, as well as an international campus in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Santa María University is the alma mater of several prominent businessmen, engineers and Chilean scientists. Its students and Alumni are known as "Sansanos".
UTFSM was the first Chilean university to confer a doctorate in engineering in 1962 and the first higher-education institution in Latin America to confer this degree.〔http://www.bib.utfsm.cl/nuevositio/attachments/087_80%20a%C3%B1os%20de%20universidad.pdf Reseña Histórica – Biblioteca UTFSM〕 The university has special emphasis in basic sciences, engineering and technical fields 〔http://www.usm.cl/admision/carreras/〕 with a more recent growth into economics and business sciences.〔http://rankings.americaeconomia.com/mba2014/ranking-mba-latino-2014/〕
Admission is very competitive and, in general, the last selected students every year have obtained around 650 points in the national admission test (PSU), which corresponds to the best 10% of the country. Santa Maria University has been historically perceived as one of the most prestigious engineering schools in the country and more recently, with the appearance of national and international rankings, has been placed among the top Universities in Chile and South America.〔=http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/world-university-rankings/2014-15/world-ranking/region/south-america〕〔="http://www.quepasa.cl/articulo/ojos-de-la-llave/2014/12/17-15854-9-ranking-de-universidades-2014.shtml〕
It is ranked 1st in Chile and 2nd in South America by The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2014-2015.〔
==History==

The university takes its name from Federico Santa María, a Chilean philanthropist that lived in France. He raised a huge fortune as a broker in the sugar market in Paris. Before his death, he donated all his fortune to create a university in Valparaíso, his hometown. Although the amount of his fortune is unknown, it is believed to have been around 2 billion dollars of today's currency. In his testament, Santa María donated his fortune with the idea of building a high-standard technical and scientific institution. This institution would accept and prepare the best students from all socioeconomic backgrounds to gain technical and scientific knowledge that contribute to the progress of the country.
Following his philosophy, on March 31, 1926, an institution was created to develop Santa María's legacy. Finally on 1931 the School of Crafts and Arts and School of Engineering José Miguel Carrera was founded. In 1935 its name changed to Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María.
The condition imposed by Federico Santa María was that, during the first 10 years, the university must receive academics from the best schools of sciences and engineering. Following this imperative, the executor of this project, Agustín Edwards McLure, moved to Germany where he contacted Dr. Karl Laudien,〔http://sansanos.us/pictures/Profesores/KarlLaudien.html〕 who was the first Rector (Chancellor) of the university. From that moment, the university received a strong German engineering education. Several German engineers and scientists arrived before and after the second world war from institutions such as TU Berlin,〔http://sansanos.us/pictures/Profesores/GuillermoFeick.html〕 Berlin University,〔http://sansanos.us/pictures/Profesores/Dr.RobertoFrucht.html〕 Leipzig University 〔http://sansanos.us/pictures/Profesores/HerbertAppel.html〕 among other German institutions. They brought to the University cutting edge knowledge in physics, chemistry and engineering. Research in new areas such as Solar Energy,〔http://energiasolar.mec.utfsm.cl/index.php/quienes-somos.html〕 or Chemistry of Natural Products (National Sciences Prize 1971 and 1998) 〔http://www.explora.cl/2013-10-16-17-40-34/premios-nacionales/naturaleza-premios/quimica-premios/833-inspirate-premios-nacionales-naturaleza-quimica〕〔http://w1.conicyt.cl/premios/naturales/jGarbarino.html〕 were created.
In 1960 the Graduate School was created. In 1962 the university became the first higher-education institution in Latin America to confer a doctorate in engineering, in cooperation with the University of Pittsburgh.
In 1960s the University started a strategy of national and international expansion. In 1966 the Technical campus "Viña del Mar" was founded.
In 1972 the campus "Rey Balduino de Bélgica", located in the city of Concepción, was founded. The campus name was chosen in honour to the King Baudouin of Belgium, who signifincantly contributed to the financing for this project.
The orientation of Rey Balduino and Viña del Mar campuses are mainly in technical areas, offering technical-craft degrees of university level (e.g., industrial maintenance, motor mechanics, electronics, among others).〔http://www.usm.cl/admision/carreras/#concepcion〕
