Salesiana理工大学（UPS）是一所位于厄瓜多尔昆卡市的私立罗马天主教大学
它由厄瓜多尔国民大会于1994年成立，当时厄瓜多尔总统Sixto Duran Ballen签署了一项总统令，授权在关键的经济和社会时期建立它，以满足对高等教育的需求
UPS的主校区位于昆卡的Barrio el Vecino社区，旧Tecnico Salesiano中学所在地。这里是大学建筑的核心，包括Mario Rizzini和Guillermo Mensi建筑、图书馆、实验室和体育设施
厄瓜多尔首都基多是该大学“El Giron”校区的所在地，该校区于1994年首次开放后，于1995年正式成立
该大学的第三个也是最后一个校区是位于瓜亚基尔的El Centenario校区。由于对额外教学空间的需求日益增加，该校于1998年开设
UPS的教学分为四个学院和一个研究生单元。这些是：行政和经济科学学院；人文科学与教育学院；农业与环境科学学院和工程学院
作为一所Salesian学院，UPS植根于天主教特色和基督教价值观，特别关注低收入背景的年轻人的教学和发展。它的愿景是被公认为一个致力于促进技术和科学研究的机构，以找到社会问题的解决方案，并在社会中寻求真理
Politecnica Salesiana University (UPS), or Salesian Polytechnic University, is a private Roman Catholic university situated in the city of Cuenca in Ecuador.
It was founded in 1994 by the National Congress of Ecuador when the president of Ecuador, Sixto Duran Ballen signed a presidential decree authorising its establishment as a result of a demand for higher education in a critical economic and social period.
The main campus of UPS is situated in the Barrio el Vecino neighbourhood of Cuenca, location of the old Tecnico Salesiano secondary school. Here is where the core of the university buildings, including the Mario Rizzini and Guillermo Mensi buildings, libraries, laboratories and sports facilities can be found.
Quito, Ecuador's capital city, is home to the university's "El Giron" campus, established officially in 1995 after initially opening in 1994.
The university's third and final campus is the El Centenario campus located in Guayaquil. This was opened in 1998 as a result of an increasing need for additional teaching space.
Teaching at UPS is divided into four faculties, as well as a postgraduate unit. These are: faculty of administrative and economic sciences; faculty of human sciences and education; faculty of agricultural and environmental sciences and the faculty of engineering.
As a Salesian institute, UPS has its roots in Catholic characteristics and Christian values, and is particularly focused on the teaching and development of young people from lower income backgrounds. Its vision is to be recognised as an institution dedicated to promoting technological and scientific research to find solutions to social problems, and for seeking truth in society.
