Toronto Metropolitan University
Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University)
Toronto Metropolitan University is Canada’s leader in innovative, career-oriented education and a university clearly on the move. With a mission to serve societal need, and a long-standing commitment to engaging its community, the university offers more than 100 undergraduate and graduate programs. Distinctly urban, culturally diverse and inclusive, the university is home to more than 45,000 students, including 2,400 master’s and PhD students, 3,200 faculty and staff, and nearly 170,000 alumni worldwide. Research at the university is on a trajectory of success and growth: externally funded research has doubled in the past five years. The G. Raymond Chang School of Continuing Education is Canada’s leading provider of university-based adult education.
The Centre for Communicating Knowledge (CCK) located within The Creative School at the university will play a key role in The Conversation and work with all Toronto Metropolitan University faculties to develop new ways to communicate research, assist in the development of multiple media platforms and create innovative outputs. The CCK’s aim is to find new ways to explore knowledge mobilization. Engaging students, the CCK will conceptualize and develop various communication assets such as infographics, videos, and animations to enhance our faculty members’ stories.
