Mechanical & Materials Engineering

Queen's Mechanical and Materials Engineering is a leader in project-based, team-oriented, and hands-on learning. With a focus on professional skills development and experiential learning, we pride ourselves on preparing our undergraduate students for success in the broad field of mechanical engineering. Our world-class faculty and facilities allow our graduate students to achieve their full academic and research potential. Multidisciplinary collaborations are encouraged across departments, faculties, and universities.

Chemical Engineering

The Department of Chemical Engineering is dedicated to achieving the highest standard of research and teaching. Our undergraduate programs are among the first Chemical Engineering and Engineering Chemistry programs in North America. Both programs were established over 100 years ago, with our graduate programs following shortly after. 

Mathematics and Statistics

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics offers degree Plans designed to appeal to a broad range of students, including those interested in pure mathematics, applied mathematics, the physical and the biological sciences, teaching, actuarial studies (science), probability, and statistics. Our instructors include leading researchers and many winners of national and university teaching awards. The Department offers various plans in Mathematics and in Statistics, leading to either a BA, BA (Hons.), BSc or BSc (Hons.) degree.

Smith Engineering

Since 1894, the Stephen J.R. Smith Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science at Queen’s University has been providing the best engineering education Canada has to offer, preparing students for leadership in a global society with top-quality, technically rigorous engineering programs.

Smith Engineering boasts a diverse and vibrant community of approximately 4,600 high-calibre undergraduate students from Canada and abroad. Graduates leave Queen's with an outstanding, committed alumni network that will sustain them throughout their careers.

Mining

The Robert M. Buchan Department of Mining at Queen’s has prepared global mining industry leaders for more than 125 years. Today, it is the largest mining department in Canada and among the largest in the world. Consistently ranked in the top 10 worldwide, Queen’s Mining has a reputation for training outstanding graduates and has strong and long-standing connections with the industry. As technology evolves and the global economy changes, our students and researchers play a crucial role in defining state of the art in mining. 

Electrical and Computer Engineering

We are passionate about working, teaching, and researching in one of the most dynamic and relevant fields of study today. Recognized nationally and internationally, the team at Queen’s Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) department prides itself on the excellence of both our teaching and our research, as well as the strong connection we have with our students.

Civil Engineering

The Department of Civil Engineering prepares undergraduate and graduate students for a rewarding career in the dynamic profession of civil engineering. Our faculty, research and teaching staff are comprised of some of the finest minds in the fields of civil and environmental engineering. They welcome questions and collaborations with our students. Along with our students from around the world and our professional administrative staff, they work together to create an energetic and creative department.

Physics, Engineering Physics & Astronomy

A degree in Physics provides you with training in theory, computation, statistical modelling, and experimental methods as you pursue problems in fundamental and applied research. Physicists design mathematical models to describe complex phenomena and test these models by making observations, conducting experiments, or running numerical simulations. The skills obtained are highly sought after and transferrable to a wide range of fields.
