Health Sciences Graduate Student Association

The Health Sciences graduate student body is the largest student body at McMaster. As such, the Health Sciences Graduate Student Association (HSGSA), formerly known as the Health Sciences Graduate Student Federation (HSGSF), was established in 1996 to provide students with opportunities to further develop and strengthen their graduate experience. We are a non-profit collaboration of academics, professionals and graduate students, representing students from all departments within the Faculty of Health Sciences Graduate Studies program at McMaster University.

OUR MISSION​

The Health Sciences GSA is committed to further enriching the health science graduate student experience at McMaster by facilitating opportunities to help immerse students in a culture of open communication and collaboration.
