About the McLean Centre
The McLean Centre for Collaborative Discovery is a new space designed to bring people, ideas and disciplines together. Located on McMaster University’s main campus and connected to the DeGroote School of Business, the Centre was made possible with support from a generous gift from the McLean family. Its spaces are designed for collaboration, networking and study, with technology that supports students and the broader community as they work together to solve real-world problems.
“Come curious. Leave inspired.”
