We are a medium-sized department, with sufficient size to ensure a breadth of research activities, yet small enough to foster a cohesive learning environment. Research serials and books are housed in the Engineering and Science Library, and a variety of search and document delivery facilities are available on-line. Research is being conducted in the fields of materials and interfaces, bioengineering, sustainable energy sources, and data analytics, optimization and control. Facilities within the polymer and reaction engineering field include a variety of bench and pilot scale polymerization reactors (gas-phase polyolefin, solution and emulsion free-radical, living-radical and condensation polymer systems), polymer processing equipment (twin-screw extruder, Haake internal mixer), rotational and capillary rheometers, fuel cell equipment, and the biomedical research facilities include cell and tissue culture labs. The Chemical Engineering Analytical Facility (ChEAF) was established for the measurement of polymeric physical, thermal and structural properties, and is supported by the Senior Research Engineer. Physical measurements and chemical analyses are carried out using a variety of instruments such as gas chromatographs, elemental analyzer, HPLCs, gel permeation chromatographs, BET surface area anal ...

Entry requirements
Calendar entry for this degree: The requirements for this program are 8 term length courses or a combination of term length and modular courses to equal 8 term length courses. At least 4 term length courses must be taken from the Department of Chemical Engineering and be entered as primary on the registration form. A maximum of 2 term length 400 series undergraduate courses or double number 400/800 level courses or a combination thereof may be taken provided that: a) the courses are approved by the student's supervisor or graduate coordinator and b) the student has not received credit for similar courses in their Bachelor's program. When: a) 2 term-length 400 series undergraduate courses, b) one 400 series undergraduate and one double number 400/800 graduate level courses, or c) two double number 400/800 graduate level courses are taken, the remaining courses must be graduate level courses and must not be combined undergraduate/graduate courses (also known as a double numbered 400/800 graduate level courses). All programs of study must be approved by the department. All students must take CHEM 801 Safety in the Laboratory, a non-credit course in laboratory safety, at the first opportunity after their initial registration. With a graduate program focused on research, the current Departmental policy is to admit qualified applicants to the M.Eng. program with no financial support being offered by the University or the Department. || General graduate admission is governed by the School of Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs: applicants normally need a four-year bachelor's degree (or a master's for doctoral entry), official transcripts and two letters of recommendation, and must meet the minimum scores set by the individual program.

A final grade of 80% or more in ESLA 140 or ESLA 150 from Queen's University's English for Academic Purposes Program, achieved at the time of application, may also remove the test requirement.

- ScholarshipsQueen's publishes no entrance scholarship specific to this programme, and Queen's graduate funding guarantee does not reach it: the guarantee is stated for full-time doctoral students, and for master's study Queen's says only that "The majority of Master's students in full-time non-professional programs also receive funding support (i.e., in year one for one-year programs, and in years one and two for two-year programs)". Applicants may still apply for the university-wide graduate awards - the Ontario Graduate Scholarship ("The current value of the award is $5,000 per term. Awards will be for two or three consecutive terms"; a small number are made to study-permit holders), the internal Queen's scholarships, fellowships and awards administered by the School of Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs ("These awards do not require an application, and many are part of funding packages given to students when they receive an admission offer."), SGSPA Conference Travel Awards, the need-based Queen's General Bursary, and the external sources Queen's lists for international students (Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships, Mitacs Globalink Research Awards and Globalink Graduate Fellowship, Government of Canada / Global Affairs Canada scholarships, the CALDO agreements and the China Scholarship Council agreement).
