Biomedical Computing
Biomedical Informatics
Transforming how health care is approached and delivered through big data is the goal of our two new professional programs: a graduate diploma and a master's in Biomedical Informatics.
Biotechnology
Cognitive Science
Computer Science
Computer Science explores the principles that underlie all of computing. It provides broad training with the opportunity to focus on specific areas such as artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, computing theory, and programming languages. From software developer to systems analyst, information architect to database administrator, graduates are well-prepared for any number of careers in the technology industry and beyond.
Computing
Computer science is one of the most exciting and diverse subjects of study today, particularly at the Queen’s School of Computing. Whether you’re interested in software design, artificial intelligence, game development, or biomedical computation, we can offer you a vast range of courses to fit your interests – and that’s only scratching the surface.
Computing and the Creative Arts
This innovative program is aimed at students with interests and abilities in both Computing and the Fine Arts. You can participate in advanced courses in Art, Drama, Film, or Music while maintaining a solid concentration in Computer Science and Mathematics. Fill out your degree with electives in other Arts areas and interdisciplinary courses of all kinds. Graduates can expect to work in the entertainment industry, in art galleries and museums, in multimedia design and production, and in developing the next generation of software for the Arts.
Computing, Mathematics, and Analytics
Data Analytics
Data Analytics is a new way of understanding complex systems by building computational models that are consistent with the observed data about those systems. If you want to play a positive role in shaping the way people make important decisions based on the presentation of data, then this is the right certificate for you.

Digital Product Management
Today, every business must be a digital business. Products and services, operations, and innovation are being transformed by digital capabilities. Digital transformation engages business processes and technological implementation. Skilled leaders are needed to ensure success.
This cross-disciplinary degree is built for these changemakers. It provides the skills and knowledge to effectively manage digitalization initiatives – whether in work productivity, automation, micro-learning, or personalized customer experiences, and more. The program covers all stages of the digital product management lifecycle. Students learn how to apply human-centered approaches, use low-code tools to build solutions, and apply modern management practices to lead change and drive real business results.
This innovative 12-month program—offered for the first time in September 2022—leverages the renowned expertise of Smith School of Business and Queen’s School of Computing for a uniquely comprehensive educational experience. Developed in consultation with digital transformation leaders in academia, business, government, and the technology sector. It is the first program of its kind in Canada.
The program will provide:
- A cross-disciplinary curriculum that synthesizes best practices from business and technology, equipping you with a comprehensive understanding to effectively manage the lifecycle of digital products and services;
- Two consecutive learning streams, comprising academic thought leadership and experiential application;
- A nine-month practicum in which student teams discover, design, build, and implement a digital solution for a real client, supported by faculty and a dedicated industry advisor;
- A low-code development approach, allowing you to apply specialized knowledge without extensive technological training;
- Instruction by internationally renowned faculty from Smith School of Business and Queen’s School of Computing who offer a rich range of academic and industry expertise;
- Virtual learning sessions delivered on evenings and weekends, allowing you to study while you work;
- Personal development workshops and career advancement days;
- SmithEdge, a set of personal capabilities that prepare you to thrive in today’s business environment; and
- Access to job opportunities through Smith’s Career Advancement Centre.
Geographic Information Science
Geographic Information Science (GISc) is the broad umbrella under which geospatial data is collected, processed and analyzed. The Queen’s University Department of Geography and Planning offers a Geographic Information Science Certificate (GISC) to enhance the skills of students not only in Geography and cognate disciplines, but across the gamut of concentrators in the university.
