Scientific and technological dissemination has been a great challenge for teaching and research
organizations, especially for Federal Institutions of Higher Education - FIHE. This dissertation
aimed to map the scientific and technological dissemination platforms existing at the Federal
University of Tocantins -UFT, as well as the volume and scope of publications related to
scientific and technological areas, in the period from 2018 to 2020. The methodology used was
the descriptive research, action research and case study; we sought to bring the reality of the
university regarding scientific and technological dissemination and the main platforms used by
UFT. The platform that stood out was instagram, but it still needs more frequency in posting
content and other platforms like youtube, it is necessary to implement strategies for better
engagement with the public. As a technological product of this investigation, the Radar da
Ciência application was developed, having as main function the dissemination of UFT's
scientific and technological information, such as the advertising of products and services
designed and offered by the University. The study also concluded that, regarding the increase
in the volume of scientific and technological dissemination actions that took place in the period
from 2018 to 2020, the volume of content needs to be continuously monitored and the
dissemination channels need to be even more diversified. These actions aim to strengthen the
role of the University within the state of Tocantins and highlight its importance, especially for
local industries.
