Welcome to the MURA website.

The McMaster University Retirees Association (MURA) exists for the following purposes:

  • to represent all retirees to the University in matters relating to pensions and retiree benefits
  • to provide retirees with a way to continue their associations with the University
  • to organize social and cultural events for the membership
  • to facilitate communication between the retirees and the University
  • to contribute to McMaster's prestige and excellence, and promote retirees' support of the University

Every McMaster retiree who was eligible to join a McMaster pension plan when working at the University automatically becomes a lifetime member of MURA when they retire.

This includes all retirees, even those who deferred their pension or withdrew their funds when they retired, and those who may have qualified for, but did not join, a pension plan.

MURA is recognized by the University as the representative of all McMaster's retirees, regardless of their employment status.

The History link gives a brief account of the Association's formation and early activities.

The Constitution link details MURA's organizational structure and functioning.

We sincerely trust you find this site informative and a useful service to the MURA membership. Please use the Feedback Form to let us know how we can improve this website, and MURA services in general.
