Today, we welcomed our 20th cohort to campus for the start of the October residency.
Cohort 20 began orientation this morning, meeting their classmates, faculty, and program team as they open their first residency.
The McMaster University Master of Communications Management program was a proud partner of P-World's Certified AI in Communications Boot Camp for the Public Sector, held in Ottawa on September 16 and 17, 2026.
The two-day event featured speakers from organizations including the City of Toronto, Parliament of Canada, and Canada Revenue Agency, with sessions spanning privacy, risk detection, prompting, and AI regulation in Canada.
For communicators and executives who want to build practical and impactful AI skills, registration is open for our upcoming Generative AI executive education workshops this winter: dsbstore.mcmaster.ca/index?i…
Generative AI is reshaping how designers work, but does it change what makes design good? MCM graduate Mahnoosh Eslahi's capstone research explores this for visual UX design.

The strongest outcomes came when designers critically evaluated AI output rather than accepting it outright. Read the full summary here: mcm.humanities.mcmaster.ca/2…
Keeping seniors connected: how an MCM capstone on building connection through technology led Mary Taws to create her own business.
Each session begins with how clients want to show up in the world, then identifies where technology can create ease and access, without asking them to choose between going fully digital and staying fully analog.
In a new guest post, Mary explains how her MCM research on digital literacy and aging, the program's blend of MBA and MA coursework, and the support of her cohort shaped the business she runs today.
