GTA Universities plan joint digital media program
globeandmail.com: Universities plan joint digital media program
Three Ontario universities - Ryerson, Waterloo and the University of Toronto - are in talks to create a new graduate school of digital media in downtown Toronto, aimed at linking top-flight students with businesses struggling to adapt to emerging technology.
The joint venture, unveiled yesterday by Ryerson President Sheldon Levy, could be running in less than two years, he said. The leaders of the three schools have already discussed the initiative with the province, and have taken the idea to businesses, including banks and technology firms.
No one told me!
But Ryerson seems willing to take the lead on digital media, so we’ll see what happens.
