The Northern Alberta Institute of Technology has announced that it is pausing 18 programs as part of a comprehensive program review. The institute states that it is looking to strengthen its academic foundations and reinvest in high-demand and emerging areas, while also remaining financially and operationally sustainable. The paused programs are housed within six of the institute’s schools, with the greatest number coming from the School of Media and Information Technology. “This is not a decision that was made lightly, and we understand the ripple effect it will have,” said NAIT VP Academic Peter Leclaire. “This in no way reflects the talent, effort, or dedication of the people behind these programs.”
