Ryerson University’s history is rooted in innovative, career-driven education with the goal of addressing contemporary societal needs. Named after Ontario’s first Superintendent of Education and leading public school advocate, Egerton Ryerson, it began as a postsecondary institute designed to combine technical education with academic theory for the first time.
Welcome to Ryerson, where every year brings exciting progress. The reputation of the university continues to grow, built on the talent of its people, the ingenuity of its unique spaces, and the strength of its dreams.
In all academic disciplines, our undergraduate and graduate students are challenging the status quo with intellectual edge and creative vision, inspired by the Ryerson mission of making an impact on our economy, society and culture.
Ryerson is now identified as the leader in Canada for innovation and entrepreneurial education, and recognized among leaders in the world. Investing traditional programs and research with the perspective, pace and emerging technologies of the 21st century, our direction is focused and bold.
It takes courage to be a pioneer, and hard work to be a champion. You are part of a great university intent on advancing our city, nation and global community in a sit-up-and-take-notice kind of way.
Part of that is the extraordinary Student Learning Centre, opened last year as the new Ryerson gateway on Yonge Street, joining iconic developments like the Mattamy Athletic Centre at the Gardens and the Ryerson Image Centre, plus new projects taking our campus forward.
