Giving at Ontario Tech

Investing in Tech with a Conscience
to make the world a better place.
This is human.

Tech with a Conscience

It's what we stand for. More than a focus, this is our mission. At Ontario Tech, we believe that technology is only as ethical as the humans guiding it. We’re building a brighter future, where leaders are a force for good and technology is built with human values at its core.

Technology is a tool imagined by humanity to uplift society and our planet. Our ingenuity is our greatest asset. It has allowed us to survive for generations and will empower us to thrive for many more.

Technology is inherently human. We intend to keep it that way.

Ways to give

Message from our leaders

Our conscience—the inherent ability to discern right from wrong, justice from injustice and good from evil—makes us human.

When technology is combined with our conscience and a shared commitment to improve the world, it can become a driving force for positive change.

As we look to the future, our vision is clear. We aim to lead a movement that harnesses technology and artificial intelligence for societal and environmental good—a promise we hold with unwavering responsibility and purpose. We envision ourselves as a thriving hub for innovation, inclusivity and excellence in research, teaching and learning, rooted in our dedication to improving the human condition.

While we are a young institution, we are a powerhouse of experience and have a proven track record of success. We are the No. 1 Undergraduate Research University in Canada and in the top 30 per cent for global research reputation. We are No. 2 among Canada’s young universities and have been the No. 1 university in Ontario in application percentage growth for three years in a row.

You hold the power to help us set a new standard in higher education. Together, we can create an environment that prioritizes student success and fosters a community where revolutionary ideas and technological advancements uplift humanity and safeguard our planet.

Together, we can develop technology infused with human ethics and ideals.
