Strategic Pillar 1: Career-Ready Citizens
Strategic Pillar #1 states that it is critical that we prepare our students to succeed in a global, knowledge-based economy that is technologydriven and changing at a phenomenal rate. These changes have disrupted the nature of work and are putting upward pressure on the knowledge and skill requirements of the labour market. Humber is addressing these challenges with a dynamic blend of academic and experiential programs that deeply engage students in their learning and empower them to think critically, make bold choices and become leaders of change.

ORI’s Commitments
To provide the best educational experience for our faculty and students, we must have stable funding to capitalize on emerging opportunities and invest in strategic priorities.
Through the development of exceptional infrastructure, systems, and technologies, we are contributing to a learning environment that supports innovation, collaboration, and inclusion.
Our focus on integrated planning functions, administrative best practices, operational excellence, and continuous improvement strengthens our ability to deliver on our commitments to our students. By investing in these key fundamentals, we empower our mission to transform education and create a durable framework for Humber’s bright future.
I think that the thing I most want you to remember is that research is a ceremony. And so is life. Everything that we do shares in the ongoing creation of our universe.”
Shawn Wilson, Author of Research is Ceremony: Indigenous Research Methods
Working with ORI allows me and my students to take on new and interesting projects that create a positive economic impact. The folks at ORI are great to work with and have an uncanny ability to find these little pots of money we need to keep these projects going. In the end, everyone: partner, student, and faculty benefit from working on these projects and working with ORI.
Bernie Monette, Professor, Faculty of Media & Creative Arts
