*** CALLING ALL GLOBALLY MINDED UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AT MCMASTER ***
Are you a Canadian citizen or Permanent Resident of Canada who wants to expand your horizons and immerse yourself in a different culture?
Are you attracted to the idea of a funded year abroad where you can work, study, and learn a new language in the country of your choice?
Do you enjoy acquiring new skills and pushing yourself beyond your comfort level?
If yes, consider registering for this event to learn more about the McCall MacBain International Fellowship (MMIF)!
WHAT:
This in-person event will provide a brief overview of the MMIF opportunity. The focus of this event will be an interactive session facilitated by a number of McMaster/MMIF fellows who spent their fellowships abroad last year in countries like Japan, Korea, Sweden, Costa Rica, Colombia and Morocco. During this event, break-out groups will be formed where you can ask questions and where conversations will be led to help you determine whether this may be a right-fit opportunity for you. It will also be a great chance to meet your McMaster peers who share your motivation to pursue global experiential learning.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND THIS EVENT:
You should attend this session if you are an undergraduate student (Level II or higher) interested in learning about the MMIF and considering applying before the January 6, 2027, application deadline. Please be sure to confirm your MMIF eligibility prior to event registration. To learn more about the MMIF, see the OSCARplus posting here.
