Queen's is a catalyst

One of the top universities in Canada, Queen’s has a long history of discovery and innovation that has shaped our knowledge and helped to address some of the world’s deepest mysteries and most pressing questions, including issues of environmental protection, health care, and the development of advanced technologies. For more than 175 years, Queen’s has brought together and built synergies among leading researchers, scholars and innovators making a real and measured impact.

Queen’s University is taking a closer look at research

The university fosters a dynamic, welcoming and collaborative environment of focused inquiry where scientists, artists, and scholars across disciplines share ideas and challenge the boundaries of what’s known and understood to effect change. We are ambitious about building synergies – strengthening our relationships with current partners, and working to establish new ones. Over the next five years, 200 new faculty will bolster the vibrancy of our research and learning capacity and help to enhance our vision of research prominence, collaboration, and internationalization.

Through our work with national and international collaborators, governments, communities, and industry partners, we will facilitate knowledge translation and exchange, advancing the research continuum – from fundamental science to tangible impact.
