ABOUT US
Who Are We?
RyeTAGA members are students of the Graphic Communications Management (GCM) program at Ryerson University. Each year, our student chapter produces a journal containing some of the best technical research papers written by third year GCM students. The final journal is entered into a competition hosted in the United States by the Technical Association for the Graphic Arts (TAGA). RyeTAGA has participated in the competition for the past five years, having been incredibly successful every year. Rye TAGA is the only Canadian student chapter and we compete against schools throughout the United States and Europe.
