This study had the objective of analysing the insertion of Science, Technology and Society (STS) in undergraduate courses at a Federal Public University in the State of Paraná - Brazil. In order, to comply with this objective, we conducted a descriptive, quantitative research, through documentary analysis of the courses, from the perspective of the material available on the Institution's website. Therefore, we complement the research with a field survey with the teachers through the application of an electronic questionnaire. What has been verified, in the institution, is that institutionally the STS theme is not considered as relevant in technological education at undergraduate level, being an optional subject among a list of alternatives available to students. Although most of the teachers know the subject and are aware of the importance of the subject, this fact did not provoke an effective change in the courses proposals. Este trabalho teve o objetivo de analisar a inserção da temática Ciência, Tecnologia e Sociedade (CTS) nos cursos de graduação, em uma Universidade Pública Federal no Estado do Paraná - Brasil. Para cumprir com este objetivo efetuamos uma pesquisa descritiva, de caráter quantitativa, mediante análise documental dos cursos, sob a perspectiva do material disponível no website da Instituição. Por conseguinte, complementamos a pesquisa com um levantamento de campo junto aos docentes por meio da aplicação de um questionário eletrônico. O que foi constatado, na instituição, é que institucionalmente a temática CTS não é considerada como algo relevante dentro da educação tecnológica, em nível de graduação, sendo um assunto optativo entre um rol de alternativas dispostas aos alunos. Apesar da maioria dos docentes conhecerem o assunto e terem ciência da importância da temática, este fato não provocou uma mudança efetiva nas propostas dos cursos.
