Funding new frontiers in research
Six research projects at Queen鈥檚 have received funding from the , a program that encourages scholars to take risks, and that fosters discoveries and innovations that could have significant impacts on our world.
Advancing international research collaborations
Transitioning out of service is a major turning point in the lives of military personnel. While many have successful experiences, a significant amount face challenging obstacles. In understanding the factors that contribute to a failed military-to-civilian transition (MCT) most of the research has focused on men, leaving a gap in addressing the unique needs of women, particularly around mental health.
Powerful recognition for research
Praveen Jain, Canada Research Chair in Power Electronics and Director of the Queen鈥檚 Centre for Energy and Power Electronics Research (ePOWER), has been awarded the 2021 IEEE Medal in Power Engineering for contributions to the theory and practice of high-frequency power-conversion systems. He is only the third Canadian to receive this medal in the history of the IEEE.

成人大片 this event:
Research Data Management (RDM) is the process applied throughout the lifecycle of your research project that guides the collection, documentation, storage, sharing, preservation and reuse of your data. RDM is now recognized as a required practice for researchers funded by the Tri-Agency under the newly released . Tools like the Portage鈥檚 Data Management Planning Assistant and Scholar鈥檚 Portal Dataverse will help implement RDM best practices into your research and meet the RDM policy requirements. In this webinar we will be covering the services and supports Queen鈥檚 University Library provides for your RDM needs. Two faculty researchers from Civil Engineering will join to discuss their experiences working with the Library to deposit their data into 成人大片 Dataverse and to implement RDM best practices.
Topics covered in this session include:
- Research Data Management
- Tri-Agency's Research Data Management Policy
- Data Management Plans
- Deposit into a Data Repository
