Developing a respectful, diverse and inclusive culture is key to ensuring everyone who passes through our doors feels safe, welcome, valued and heard. At the Desautels Faculty of Management, we are committed to advancing equity, diversity and inclusion to better serve our community.
We strive to address and prevent Antisemitism and Islamophobia on our campuses. At McGill, you’ll find a wide range of services and resources that are available to support you and to make you feel more included on campus.
If a situation related to Antisemitism and Islamophobia is brought to your attention, seek support (e.g., Equity Team, OMR, Dean of Students, Ombudsperson or Campus Security)
If you identify as First Nations, Inuit, or Métis, we encourage you to self-identify on your McGill application. Doing so will connect you with specific services and funding opportunities available to Indigenous students. It will also help McGill assess its progress in the recruitment and retention of students from various communities.
The McGill University’s Special Funding page provides information about numerous funding opportunities, including need-based bursaries for specific groups such as indigenous students, students with disabilities, 2SLGBTQIA+, as well as external awards and emergency loans.

The project was initiated by the Engineering Undergraduate Society’s Indigenous Inclusion Committee (ICC) with the hopes of increasing visibility, representation, and inclusion of Indigenous students and cultures in the Faculty of Engineering, and developed in collaboration with the Faculty of Engineering’s Dean’s office, the Provost’s Indigenous Initiatives Office, and McGill’s Visual Arts Collection. The exhibit features 30 artworks from a variety of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities, curated by the Indigenous Inclusion Committee, selected from McGill's Visual Arts Collection. It is the first exhibit of its kind at McGill.
Projections: Kwe was launched in April 2022. All are invited to view the exhibit and engage with the stories behind each work. Located in McConnell Engineering Building Lobby (3480 University Street).
