The university aims to form professionals through transmission and dissemination of knowledge, therefore, the Extension, as a tool of the universities, has a major role contributing to improvements in the learning and teaching process. The Extension projects are extremely important for The Federal Technological University of Paraná (UTFPR), since they increase the scope of citizens, benefiting them with research and knowledge. The project 'Qualifying Students in private and public schools from Apucarana for the Brazilian Mathematical Olympics for Public and Private Schools (OBMEP)', was designed with the objective of developing logical thinking in students, that participate on the project, as well increasing their interest in mathematics through the application of various activities, thereby helping to reduce the discrepancies in the learning process. The project also has the purpose to increase the number of qualified students for the second phase and medalists of the Maths Olympics. The idea is to provide ways to entertain students, trying to introduce greater dynamics to their studies. In 2019, some students of the project were awarded scholarships by the Institutional Program of Scientific Initiation Scholarships (PIBIC Jr), in which the scholarship's holder help in the development of research at the university. During the project, significant improvements of the participating students were noted, both in the school's grade and in the results of the Maths Olympics. The project was indeed beneficial for everyone (students and volunteers) since there was personal and academic growth for those who were willing to teach. With the progress of this project, the importance of the University Extension for the community became evident, since it is keen to contribute to the intellectual and personal growth of each individual involved.
