Ryerson University Changes Name

Ryerson University in Toronto has changed its name to Toronto Metropolitan University. 

Ryerson Institute of Technology was established in 1948 in response to the need for skilled tradespeople following the Second World War. Built on the historical site of Ontario’s first teacher training college -- known as the Toronto Normal School. After 1963, “polytechnic” was added and in 2002, Ryerson Polytechnic University shortened its title to Ryerson University.
