M.Sc. in Geological Engineering

The Department of Geological Sciences and Geological Engineering provides opportunities for advanced studies and research in the Earth Sciences. Faculty interests span disciplines in geology, geochemistry and geoengineering often in a multi-disciplinary fashion and including applications to economic and environmental problems. With high-tech geochemistry and geophysics labs, geomechanics computing tools, and Queen’s Facility forIsotope Research lab to work in, our students have the opportunity to engage in cutting-edge geoscience and geoengineering research.As well, students collaborate with industrial partners, government laboratories and surveys, and academic institutions worldwide, and engage in extensive fieldwork on six continents, making our program truly a world-class experience. Students can avail opportunities to collaborate with other departments at Queen’s, including the GeoEngineering Centre at Queen’s & RMC, Mining, Environmental Studies, and Civil Engineering.
