Ryerson’s faculty consists of experienced professionals who bring real-world expertise into the classroom. While the university is known for its practical approach, it also offers opportunities for students to engage in research and scholarly activities.

The Graphic Communications Management degree program covers various subjects, including graphic design, business, and the printing industry. Through the program, students can develop a comprehensive understanding of the printing industry’s inner workings, from packaging to publishing and display graphics. At the Heidelberg Centre, students will also have access to multiple high-end printers and Mac labs. However, if a student doesn’t find themselves interested in the printing industry aspect of the program, there are other courses available that focus on project management, graphic design, and UI/UX design.

As someone who was previously aiming to be an engineer but decided not to, this program was extremely easy in terms of getting an A. The professors are amazing and sweet! The reason why I rate it 3 stars is because it’s not for me. I think the career prospect looks really promising, however, I feel really unsure of my future as there’s a BROAD career outcome. Since there isn’t a clear focus on packaging, design, and business, I feel like I won’t be able to get a job because I’m not coming out of it specialized in anything particular.

I have just finished my first year in the Graphic Communications Management program, I really like it! The classes are very engaging and hands-on, keeping you creative and enthusiastic about the work. All professors are very professional and encouraging. But I’ve met some really good ones who go out of their way to care for their student’s needs. Online classes can be challenging to navigate for some people, but there are many options and school resources to help students. The school has recently decided on the new name being Toronto Metropolitan University and they are putting in a lot of work right now going through the processes of changing all the specifics, which I really appreciate and am excited for. The school is in a great location for students who love the city or even who live farther out and like to communicate, not to mention the job opportunities in the surrounding areas. The school is very diverse just like the city is and has many international students in all programs. I am really looking forward to the education and experiences in my future years at TMU.
