Ontario Tech acknowledges the lands and people of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation.

We are thankful to be welcome on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered by the Williams Treaties and are the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to many Indigenous nations and peoples.

We acknowledge this land out of respect for the Indigenous nations who have cared for Turtle Island, also called North America, from before the arrival of settler peoples until this day. Most importantly, we acknowledge that the history of these lands has been tainted by poor treatment and a lack of friendship with the First Nations who call them home.

This history is something we are all affected by because we are all treaty people in Canada. We all have a shared history to reflect on, and each of us is affected by this history in different ways. Our past defines our present, but if we move forward as friends and allies, then it does not have to define our future.

Budget Overview


The annual operating budget is a shared responsibility between Finance and the Provost.

The Finance department manages the submission, reporting and analysis of the budget, while the strategic allocation process is managed by the Provost.

The department provides and facilitates the budgeting cycle by acting as a resource to all academic, support, and administrative departments. Through training and consistent support, we assist all departments in planning, implementing, monitoring and controlling their budgets within anticipated resources.

We work to ensure Ontario Tech University is fiscally responsible and accountable with its annual operating budget.
