Research Centres and Institutes

Queen’s is home to 22 institutional and faculty-based research centres and institutes that support interdisciplinary networks. Through international collaboration, research, and comparative approaches they develop international best practice around contributing to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and ask critical questions ranging from dark matter, to divisive societies, and energy transition.

Discovery and curiosity-driven research centres and institutes bring together scholars across disciplines to pursue fundamental and applied research that addresses grand challenges and societal issues of national and international scope.

Research centres and institutes play an integral role in advancing the research mission and in attracting and retaining leading researchers at Queen’s. They are excellent indicators of research strengths and are utilized as a vehicle for promoting and facilitating multidisciplinary collaboration. Through their research output, partnerships, and collaborations, and unique opportunities for students, most of our centres and institutes have garnered national and international reputations as leaders in their respective fields.
