The MES
About Us
Who are we?
The McMaster Engineering Society (MES) is the official undergraduate McMaster University Faculty of Engineering student society. We are a group of students who work to foster the development of our fellow classmates by offering professional, conference, academic, athletic, social, wellness, and mentorship opportunities!
Our History
The MES was first founded in the Fall of 1959 by a few innovative students who wanted to make a difference in the Mac Eng community. Our long history has taught our team much and has created opportunities for our very own culture and traditions to grow - see Culture for more information!
Our Present
Fast forward over 60 years, the MES is one of the largest student groups on campus (boasting about 100 members, both elected and appointed positions). As part of one of the largest faculties at McMaster University, we support over 7000 students and 61 Mac Eng clubs and teams. Our purpose is to foster student growth while lifting up and spotlighting their amazing work - see here to meet our affiliated and ratified clubs!

We also offer various social and conference opportunities for students to meet and network with other engineering students here at McMaster, and on a provincial and national scale.

We also advocate on behalf of Mac Eng students with faculty admin to ensure all students are satisfied with their undergraduate careers.
Our Future
Our primary goal is to support Mac Eng students, and that will continue into the future.
