🇵🇪 Universidad de Sipán: The First University Training Center for Humanoid Robots in Latin America

The Universidad de Sipán, in Peru, is building something that does not yet exist in any other university in the region: the first university training center for humanoid robots in Latin America. And they are doing it seriously with four Ubtech Tienkung robots operating under Robots ID.

Four robots in a single academic environment is not a pilot. It is infrastructure. It is an institutional decision to become a regional reference point in a technology that is still in its early stages within academia. Universidad de Sipán understood that those who build training capabilities today will have a massive advantage when the rest of the market begins to demand them.

This center will not only train professionals in operating and programming humanoid robots, but will also generate high-quality training data one of the most valuable assets in the intelligent robotics ecosystem. A key driver behind this initiative has been Percy Castro, Strategic International Education Manager and international researcher, who has played a critical role in pushing this vision forward within the university. His leadership reflects a broader shift: institutions are no longer passively observing this technology they are actively positioning themselves to lead its adoption.

It is the most advanced model we have seen in Latin American academia, and a clear signal of where this is heading.

From Humandroid

At Humandroid, our role in all of this is not only technological it is about partnership.

We believe that institutions that choose to integrate humanoid robotics into their curriculum today will be training the most in-demand professionals of the next economic cycle. And we want to stand alongside each of them in that process.

If you are part of an educational institution and want to explore how to incorporate humanoid robotics into your academic offering whether through a workshop, a club, a diploma, or a full degree — we are ready to talk.

The education of the future cannot be built without the robots of the future.
