REPUTATION Ryerson’s reputation has steadily developed in concert with the evolution that has led us to be a comprehensive university. The number of students who now apply to Ryerson as their first choice has increased more than at any other university in the province, and entering averages continue to rise; the number of high quality faculty with doctoral or terminal degrees in their field who join Ryerson continues to rise steadily; SRC funding and output continue to grow; the number of high quality undergraduate and graduate programs has increased. All of this is an indication of Ryerson’s reputation as an academic institution. Ryerson’s Master Plan will carry it into the future and support its role as a City Builder. Alumni and their contributions to society, as well as effective marketing and communication, will keep the University in the public eye and enhance the success of its fundraising efforts. Ryerson’s reputation will allow it to build on what it already has with a view to what it will become in the future.
