Mathematics & Engineering

The only Engineering program in North America primarily offered by a mathematics department, Mathematics and Engineering blends engineering with advanced mathematics and provides a rigorous treatment of engineering concepts and ideas. You will learn to analyze and solve engineering problems requiring sophisticated mathematical skills, such as those involving modern communications, control, and mechatronic systems, as well as emerging areas such as artificial intelligence and data science.

Nuclear Engineering (UNENE)

The University Network of Excellence in Nuclear Engineering (UNENE) is a Canadian based alliance of universities, nuclear power utilities, research and regulatory agencies for the support and development of nuclear education, research and development capability in Canadian universities. UNENE is an industry-university partnership which supplies highly-qualified graduates, supports nuclear research and creates respected university-based experts. Research and education are the two tools used in this mission.

Water and Human Health

The Graduate Diploma in Water and Human Health, hosted by the Beaty Water Research Centre, is designed to give recent graduates and professionals an enhanced understanding of the role of water in driving health outcomes and ultimately the sustainability of populations and communities.

GeoEngineering

Unique in North America, the GeoEngineering program is a collaboration between faculty members at Queen’s University and the Royal Military College (RMC). Drawn from three engineering departments at the two universities, the GeoEngineering Centre’s members are dedicated to advancing knowledge in geotechnical, geohydrological, geochemical, geohazards, and cold regions.

Engineering and Applied Physics

In Queen’s collaborative graduate programs in engineering and applied physics, research is centred around themes that use basic science and physics to improve quality of life and to solve current or future problems facing people both in Canada and worldwide. This research spans areas of photonics, quantum information technology, medical physics, non-destructive evaluation, materials physics, electronic device physics and plasma physics.

Applied Sustainability

Applied Sustainability is the application of science and innovation to meet human needs while indefinitely preserving the life support systems of the planet. The objective of the Collaborative Masters Program in Applied Sustainability is to expose MEng and MASc students to the implementation of sustainable engineering solutions within the context of broader sustainability theory.

Mining Engineering

Undergraduate program: Explore the minerals industry and related environmental and technological fields. You’ll study a wide range of disciplines involved in locating, extracting, refining, and disposing of mineral and metal products and by-products – leading to various dynamic career options in a truly global field. 

Mining Technologies

Whether new to the industry or a seasoned professional, the Certificate in Mining Technology can help you hone the competencies you need to succeed in today’s modern mining sector. This 6-course undergraduate program is offered entirely online in an asynchronous format. It is designed for engineers and professionals, science and engineering students, and graduates just entering the mining sector. 

Geological Engineering

Geological engineers combine core engineering fundamentals with a broad slate of geological knowledge, ranging from geology to geotechnical engineering. You will study physics, chemistry, applied mathematics, and natural processes such as earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, and mountain formation. You will also acquire field, laboratory, and computer simulation skills and training in state-of-the-art geological investigation and engineering analysis tools.
