Welcome to McMaster University

We are celebrating our 125th anniversary in 2012. Our large, attractive campus, the interior of which is open only to pedestrians and cyclists, is at the western end of Lake Ontario in Hamilton, Canada. Nearby attractions include Cootes Paradise, the Bruce Trail, the Niagara Escarpment, the Waterfront Trail, and the Royal Botanical Gardens. By bus, regional transportation systems, or automobile, the University is minutes from downtown Hamilton, and the activities that a major city has to offer.
