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 minimum requirements to be fulfilled are 4 term courses, a department seminar and a thesis. Two graduate courses must be from within the Department of Chemical Engineering, unless otherwise approved by the research supervisor and departmental graduate coordinator. One term length senior (400-series) undergraduate course, OR one combined undergraduate/graduate course (also known as a double numbered 400/800 course) may be accepted as the equivalent of a graduate course from any discipline for an M.A.Sc. student provided that a) the course is approved by the student's supervisor and b) the student has not received credit for a similar course in their Bachelor's program. 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, and also participate in CHEE 897 , the departmental seminar series. All programs of study must be approved by 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; the awards open to its applicants are the university-wide graduate ones. Queen's states 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)", and that amounts vary by programme, so applicants are told to consult the programme. Internal awards need no separate application: "These awards do not require an application, and many are part of funding packages given to students when they receive an admission offer." International applicants are additionally eligible for 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), Mitacs Globalink awards and, where the discipline qualifies, Tri-Council (NSERC/SSHRC/CIHR) awards.
