Overview

The Faculty of Information at the University of Toronto is one of the world’s most important information and knowledge management schools. Information is studied and tough questions are asked for the benefit of society and the students. Located in the heart of Canada’s most diverse and dynamic city, the programs are led by leading researchers and faculty across multiple disciplines and result in exceptional research and career opportunities. The Faculty of Information is the centre for information professions and leaders of research that matters.

People. Information. Technology. They intersect at the Faculty of Information, a launch pad for futures as highly skilled practitioners or researchers. Today’s technologies have transformed the way we connect with, shape, and use information. Similar changes have been taking place in the field of museums and cultural heritage.
