ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´

Just a few months ago, Black History and Futures Month at ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´, as elsewhere, was devoted to honouring the history and contributions of Black Canadians and their communities.

Principal and Vice-Chancellor Patrick Deane has announced two appointments to the university’s Senior Leadership Team.

Matthew Evans will serve as ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´ next Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic) and will begin a five-year term on Aug. 1, 2023, succeeding Interim Provost Teri Shearer.

ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´ has launched its new Global Engagement Strategic Plan 2023-2028, a guiding document for enhancing the university’s ability to generate global impact.

Recipients of the 2023 Principal's Teaching and Learning Awards have had a lasting impact on the student learning experience at Queen's.

The Principal’s Teaching and Learning Awards are conferred annually to educators and staff who show outstanding leadership and innovation in teaching and learning. 

Across the ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´ community, a great deal of research, teaching, learning, community engagement, and stewardship activities are directly related to the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). Increasing awareness of these relationships and coordinating and enhancing the work is a priority for the university. Like the ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´ Strategy, UN SDGs call on us to harness our sense of social responsibility, address significant and urgent real-world challenges, and advance our social impact.  

ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊԴ’s Schulich Leaders recently met with Principal and Vice-Chancellor Patrick Deane and Vice-Principal (Advancement) Karen Bertrand to share their experiences and reconnect with their fellow scholarship recipients.

Two teams and six individual staff members are being celebrated for their excellent work and accomplishments at ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´.

The 2022 Special Recognition for Staff Awards recognize staff, nominated by colleagues, who have gone above and beyond their day-to-day activities to have a lasting positive impact.

Award recipients and their guests are invited to a private reception in late April.

ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´, in collaboration with its community partners on and off campus, is taking action to encourage students to focus on well-being, respect, and responsibility, while also preparing to enforce bylaws and the university’s Student Code of Conduct to ensure students don’t put themselves or others at risk over the St. Patrick’s Day weekend.

Post-secondary institutions across the country are coming together from March 6-10 to mark the first SDG Week Canada. This national collaboration is organized by the , , and , of which ºÚÁϳԹÏ×ÊÔ´ is a member.
