Dean’s message

What an amazing year this has been! We’ve had quite a time celebrating our 125th anniversary with events here at Queen’s, around the country, and overseas. The high point was definitely the grand opening of Mitchell Hall, a space that is already changing the way our students, staff, and faculty learn and collaborate. All in all, we’ve had a spectacular opportunity to reflect on our history and prepare for the future.

Last fall, we put out a call to alumni, faculty, staff, and students, asking, “Who is engineering a better world?” We were overwhelmed by the number and quality of nominations from all audiences, including hundreds from alumni around the world. Through our 125th anniversary celebrations, we had the opportunity to honour the award winners for their commitment to our Faculty, engineering, their communities, and our world.

We hope you enjoy our photo galleries in this edition, including our Queen’s Engineering Excellence 125th Awards, Homecoming 2018, alumni events, and more.

This is also the last issue of The Complete Engineer—but don’t worry, we’ll still be keeping in touch. Along with our new monthly e-newsletter and podcast, we are thrilled to be introducing a new magazine that represents our spirit of curiosity and vision for the future. Watch for the first issue of this new and exciting publication this winter.

I hope you enjoy this edition, and I look forward to seeing many of you at Homecoming this October!
