DeGroote graduates wear many hats worthy of celebration. Whether they are building stronger communities through their leadership, driving innovation and disruption in their fields, or making significant contributions to society through philanthropy, these individuals showcase the breadth and depth of the education and values instilled at DeGroote.
Our awards shine a spotlight on their most outstanding achievements.
In 2000, we created the Wayne C. Fox Distinguished Alumni Award to recognize our outstanding graduates. That year, we presented the first award to its namesake, Dr. Wayne C. Fox. Since then, the legacy award has fostered a culture of recognizing and celebrating DeGroote alumni.
Recipients are DeGroote School of Business alumni whose personal accomplishments, reputation, and character, by association, enhance the reputation of McMaster University. More than that, the award, presented in partnership with the McMaster Alumni Association, celebrates the enduring quality of a DeGroote education.
