Partnership
We seek close cooperative links with universities, industry and the business community. Collaborative partnerships between these sectors can bring numerous benefits to all parties involved. Under partnership or patronage agreements, companies contribute to curriculum development and share their expertise in the classroom. This collaboration accounts for our students’ opportunity to gain hands-on experience directly from representatives of business organizations from across the country and abroad.
