McMaster Celebrates International Education Week 2024
This month, McMaster community was excited to celebrate the International Education Week (IEW) 2024. As part of the celebrations, the Office of International Affairs lead and contributed to three events open to faculty and staff:
- On October 15th, attendees had a chance to hear about McMaster’s Global Engagement Strategy 2025-2030 , shaped by extensive consultations with the university community. This was a fantastic opportunity to engage with colleagues across McMaster and to gain insight into the vision that will guide our institution’s future and foster a vibrant and inclusive global engagement.

- The SSC and the OIA had a session for faculty and staff to learn focusing on the exchange agreement creation process, how partner institutions are chosen, alignment with McMaster’s Global Engagement Strategy, reciprocity considerations, and support for students choosing to study abroad through the McMaster Exchange Program.
- In collaboration with SSC and SGS, the OIA presented on the exciting opportunities offered by Global Affairs Canada (GAC), through scholarships for international and Canadian students in the 2025-26 academic year. These scholarships play a crucial role in advancing McMaster University’s internationalization efforts, enhancing student mobility, and promoting both Canada and McMaster as premier study destinations.
