The Advancement Team works with alumni, friends, and donors to support the faculty, students, and researchers. Their work would not be possible without your support.
There are many ways that you can support, including contributions to scholarships, bursaries, awards and more. Giving is easy; donate directly through our online site, or learn more about the many opportunities below.
Your generosity can transform a life.
The degree I completed in Health Studies provided with an excellent foundation to enter the nursing program. The program thoroughly educated me in a number of health and aging topics and encouraged me to think about these topics critically.
By completing a double major in the Faculty of Social Sciences, specifically in Religious Studies and Sociology, my worldview quickly expanded as I began learning about diverse communities, belief systems, theories, and perspectives.
I loved my time at McMaster. I truly felt like a part of a community, at both the Economics Department and McMaster more generally. The faculty at the Economics Department were genuinely interested and cared about me and my research interests and ambitions. Without their support, as well as the friendships that I made with other students, I would not have had such a wonderful and successful experience at McMaster.
