What benefits does collaboration with KMDI specifically offer students besides additional elective courses?
Students are treated as members of KMDI’s growing research community, being given free access to the technological and personnel resources of the Institute. They are provided training and tech support for a range of new technologies, implemented directly in their course projects and as platforms for their larger research programs. KMDI’s position as centre of a collaboration of graduate units provides further leverage. Units participating in the collaboration agree to support KMD CP students, including those who belong to outside units. Collaborative Program students consequently enjoy an access to cross-departmental resources that would be difficult if not impossible to reproduce otherwise. The institute itself is a recognized leader in the international KMD community, its graduate students connecting with a network of researchers, scholars and practitioners in both the academe and the private sector.
