- Ryerson University's history is rooted in innovative, career-driven education to address contemporary societal needs. Named after Ontario's first Superintendent of Education and leading public school advocate, Egerton Ryerson, it began as a postsecondary institute designed to combine technical education with an academic theory for the first time. Welcome to Ryerson, where every year brings exciting progress.
