The today Technological University José Antonio Echeverría, in its beginnings the University City José Antonio Echeverría (CUJAE), whose old acronyms are still used for its popular recognition. With the triumph of the Revolution on January 1, 1959, a stage of revolutionary transformations at the national level began in Cuba and among the first were educational ones. Thus the conditions are created to initiate a true university reform, dreams until then unique of the great Cuban teachers: Varela, Martí, Mella, Varona and of all those who for years had fought and even given their lives to cement a worthy University that was only achieved with Fidel. It is attached to the Ministry of Higher Education of Cuba.
On February 15, 2017, the National Accreditation Board awarded him the superior category of excellence, for his results in the comprehensive training of students, research and its impact on the municipality, the nation and abroad.
