UNB, NBCC establish digital pathways program, thanks to $1M gift from JD Irving

The University of New Brunswick Saint John, McKenna Institute, and New Brunswick Community College have established a new digital pathways program, thanks to a $1M gift from JD Irving, Limited. This initiative will contribute toward the provision of student scholarships and bursaries at both NBCC and UNB for programs related to digital technology. The funding will also be used to improve digital technology curriculums at the institutions and to explore opportunities for shared applied research. “We are deeply grateful for this generous contribution from our partners at JDI, which will help us continue to empower our students and the community at large with the skills and opportunities needed to excel in the digital economy,” said NBCC President Mary Butler.
