The financial support offered to students through scholarships and awards makes it a realistic possibility to pursue a graduate degree and to conduct fieldwork. McMaster has established a strong reputation over the last 30 years for excellence in northern research. McMaster has all of these and that s why I chose to pursue a doctorate in anthropology here. Jim Albanese, Ph.D. candidate, Anthropology I chose McMaster for the intellectual expertise of the anthropology faculty and its relevance to my chosen specialization. Additionally, I chose the anthropology department at McMaster because the faculty is not factionalized.
Graduate students are free to work in a friendly, politically neutral environment.
Anthropology I like McMaster s student-centred approach. The faculty is accessible and tremendously supportive. I chose to come to McMaster University because of its long standing reputation as the best school for Religious Studies in a Canadian University.
