The Organization

Ontario Tech University acknowledges the lands and people of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation. We are thankful to be welcomed on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered under the Williams Treaties and the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to a number of Indigenous nations and people.

The University sits at the centre of Ontario’s industrial heartland and contributes greatly to the economy and communities of the Durham Region and Northumberland County. Whether building smart communities, designing sustainable energy systems or driving innovation in advanced manufacturing, the University is key to the area’s continuing prosperity and success.

Today, Ontario Tech University stands as one of Canada’s smart, young, and focused leaders in career ready education and collaborative research. Founded in 2002, Ontario Tech has quickly developed an outstanding reputation for generating exceptional student outcomes in a dynamic and research-rich learning environment. The Faculty of Business and Information Technology represents a unique pairing of the core disciplines of business with innovative opportunities associated with emerging information technologies. The work of the faculty supports students and researchers in exploring these disciplines within the institution’s focus on experiential learning and tech with a conscience.
