going into the interior


Explanation:
I think you are right Vidomar and that they mean, "take education into the interior of the country". felida's choice of 'inland' is good, methinks, but it doesn't work if you don't turn the sentence around a bit in order to make it work.

By going into the interior and expanding its courses through distance learning, CEFET-SC is increasing its contribution [...]

agree  felidaevampire: "The interior" is best, indeed (but note I gave the "countryside" option, so I'm only half dumb :)). :) :) :)

  -> You are not at all dumb! I thought your "inland" very good, and I hesitated a lot about giving a separate answer but I did have an answers with essential differences. Thanks :-)

Reference information:
Neste caso, não seria "interiorizar" = "ir para o interior", ou seja, a organização se expandiu para o interior? Caso seja, a tradução não seria "internalize"!
