Program

Faculty of Engineering & amp; Applied Science offers the following programs:

  • Double degree (Students may choose to take the Arts Science program in conjunction with their Technical program, which normally requires a year of additional study)
  • Math & amp; Technique *
  • Chemical Engineering
  • Civil Engineering
  • Computer Engineering
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Chemical Engineering *
  • Engineering Physics *
  • Geological Techniques *
  • Mechanical and Materials Engineering
  • Mining Techniques
  • Technique and Co-op

All programs marked with * are Engineering Science programs.

Queen's Engineering students share a common first year program which means they are not required to choose discipline until after they complete their first year of study.

History

In 1893, the Ontario government established the Kingston School of Mining, coinciding with the location of Queen's University, but legally existed as a separate institution. When the Queen became a secular institution in 1910, the School of Mining officially joined the University and later changed its name to the Faculty of Applied Science.

The first woman who graduated from the Faculty, in 1946, was Dorothy Snook (nÃÆ' Â © e Heartz), born in Montreal and a long time resident of Truro, Nova Scotia. In the 21st century, 31% of the Engineering Class 2020 is female, one of the highest percentages of the country's major engineering programs.

In early 2010, the Faculty of Applied Science re-branded, after voting across the faculty, as the Faculty of Engineering & amp; Practical science.

Integrated Learning Center

Faculty of Engineering & amp; Applied Science's newest building, Integrated Learning Center, was officially opened in June 2004 as Beamish-Munro Hall. This unique facility is designed to support and stimulate undergraduate learning including multi-purpose spaces, shared teaching labs, prototyping workshop rooms, comfortable spaces for students to work on joint projects, eco-friendly features, Live Building systems where the building itself can be used as a learning tools, and high-level living walls that act as biofilters. Most rooms and laboratories can be used freely, and some of them can be booked. The Tea Room is a student café managed for the purpose of environmental sustainability, opened in the Integrated Learning Center in the fall of 2006.

Following fears of high maintenance costs, the living wall was removed in 2015, to be replaced by artwork designed by Toronto-based artist Kwest in collaboration with engineering students.

The engineering tradition

Engineering students at Queen's are registered under the Faculty of Engineering & amp; Practical science. The spirit of engineering students is very clear through strong traditions. One such tradition is their own immersion and gold leather jacket (known as "Golden Party Armor" or IPK for short) purple with gentian violet (aka "purpling"). Full-body Purpling is done by a second-year student involved in a weekly facilitation froh, called "FREC", an abbreviation derived from the "Frosh Regulation Enforcement Committee [1]," although the original term remains only a historical record. As a result of the prohibition of the "purple" in residence and cafeteria made in 1990 (due to frictional colors), the first year students were not purple during the frosh week, as the majority lived in residence. However, the frosh was known for its own purple homecoming weekend on Saturday morning before a soccer game. The purpling jacket by frosh is considered a rite of passage, performed two nights before their final exams from fall, soon after getting their jackets and kicking them home. The jackets were actually kicked back to their living quarters or homes, because the frosh could not touch the jackets with their hands until they were brought home. This has stem the tradition of years over playing pranks in frosh, (eg throwing a jacket on the roof, tying them to a pole, etc., and having frosh find a way to get back their jackets without using a hand). The right to wear jacket is not allowed until the final exam of autumn is over. In addition, the badges and peaks, especially the "Pass Crest" on the sleeve, should not be added to the jacket until the completion of the First Year exam. After the completion of Year One, in April, students can also sew various "bars" for their jackets. Bars are obtained and booked for various events and achievements. There are many bars for achievement, to participate in activities, such as Thundersledz (frosh winter group event), to signify the country closest to their relationship, to indicate the discipline they face, etc.

In the fall of 1956, the Science class '60 was forced to climb a goal stolen the previous year from the University of Toronto's Varsity Stadium. Over the years, this has evolved into the legendary tradition of the Grease pole, and has led to some friendly rivalry with U of T. To this day, first-year students are led to "climbing the bush", which is the same milestone covered in 1 lanolin 25-mm (25 mm) industry, surrounded by waist-high holes, commonly known as "greasepit."

Another Queen's Engineering Tradition is an event called "Formal Sci" (Formal Science) in which fourth-year students spend thousands of hours working on building and transforming the interior of Grant and Kingston Halls into scenes of storybooks that rival the movie set for a one-night black tie event. In recent years, all the palaces, churches, pyramids and giant sphinx have been built inside Grant Hall.

Limitations on learning year

The new rules require that students complete their undergraduate degree in six years of matriculation, which contrasts with the previous rule that six non-consecutive sessions are allowed. This rule is the least restrictive of its kind in the province and affects women who may bear children and thus interfere with their university education, and people with disabilities. Students with disabilities such as depression can apply for an extension, but no policy is issued to handle disability.

Engineering Society

Formed in 1896, The Queen's Engineering Society, often known as EngSoc, is one of the oldest representative bodies for engineering students in Canada and continues to be a leader in student initiatives. With 2400 members currently living on campus, fifteen thousand active alumni live around the world, and an annual budget of $ 1.2 million, the Engineering Society oversees about forty-five student-led initiatives ranging from design projects to services to events social fun. The Engineering Society also publishes a weekly newspaper humor, Golden Words .

Clark Hall

Clark Hall was named after Arthur Lewis Clark, who became Dean of Applied Sciences for 24 years. The building features the old Clark Hall Pub, Campus Bookstore, and EngSoc Lounge (with the new EngSoc Lounge at EngSoc's office in Beamish-Munro Hall), which later hosts some student-managed services such as the International Development Queen Project, Golden Words and Campus Outfitters.

Clark Hall Pub is a traditional engineering student hangout at Queen's University, although it is frequented by students from all faculties. It's run by the Queen's Engineering Society (EngSoc), and is located in Clark Hall, above the Campus Bookstore. This is the first pub student run in Canada. First opened in 1971, Clark Hall Pub is the oldest pub on the Queen's campus. In June 2007, Clark Hall Pub was closed indefinitely by the Engineering Society, citing concerns about management and financial clarity. It has since reopened and resumed normal operations in October 2008.

Clark Hall Pub has also been home to many successful acts, including The Tragically Hip, Arcade Fire, Arkells, Bedouin Soundclash, K-os, and Craig Cardiff. Each year a home band is selected through the 'Battle of the Bands' competition, which Tragically Hip failed to win when they first started in the 1980s.

Every Friday afternoon, students from all faculties march outside the pub to attend the "Ritual", the busiest day for pubs and the tradition of the old faculty.
