Hello, everybody. Today I will share with you some information about a public research university located in Toronto. This university is quite old, since it was founded back in 1827 as King's College. At that time, it was the first higher education institution in Upper Canada. Subsequently, becoming a secular institution, in 1850 it received its current name.
The University itself consists of 11 colleges and operates 2 suburban campuses, in addition to this, the University of Toronto includes more than 700 undergraduate and 200 master's programs. The university is known for its programs in literary criticism, communication theory, insulin and stem cell research, the first artificial pacemaker, and the site of the first successful lung and nerve transplant. In addition to all this, the University of Toronto has made major progress in the development of deep learning, neural network, multi-touch technology and much more.
