The Faculty and Department

Celebrating its 130 anniversary, the Robert M. Buchan Department of Mining (Queen’s Mining) has outstanding laboratory facilities and an unparalleled reputation for the quality of our graduates. In alignment with emerging societal and industry priorities, Queen’s Mining embraces an integrated systems approach to the mining project life cycle, enabling safer, more efficient, and sustainable extraction processes. To this end, established faculty members have active research programs addressing all aspects of the mining value chain, including Geostatistics, Blasting, Geomechanics, Mine Design, Mineral Processing, Extractive Metallurgy, Sustainability, and Intelligent Mining Systems.

Queen’s Mining currently has 13 faculty members, 5 professional staff, and 4 technical staff who oversee world class laboratories for teaching and research in blasting, rock mechanics, mineral processing, and extractive metallurgy. The department offers an undergraduate B.A.Sc. program in Mining Engineering, with an option to specialize in mine design, mineral processing, or mine-mechanical systems. At the graduate level, the department offers a course-based M.Eng. program, and research-based M.A.Sc. and Ph.D. programs. The department also delivers a fully-online undergraduate Certificate in Mining Technologies, a graduate diploma in Social Performance Management for the Extractive Industries, and several stand-alone Professional Development courses.

The primary academic appointment for this position will be in the Robert M. Buchan Department of Mining. However, cross-appointment to other relevant academic departments is encouraged, depending on the area of expertise and research focus of the appointee.

Among our top priorities in the Stephen J.R Smith Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science is providing opportunities for early career academics to develop exceptional research and teaching contributions while fostering an inclusive environment where all faculty can thrive. Support for faculty to develop strong research programs includes Special Research Grant opportunities, grant writing workshops and review services, and one-to-one mentorship from experienced colleagues. To promote on-going teaching success, there is support for course development and delivery provided by the Queen’s Centre for Teaching and Learning, the Engineering Teaching and Learning Team, the Robert M. Buchan Department of Mining Engineering and the Stephen J.R. Smith Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. Smith Engineering is also committed to promoting equity, diversity, and inclusivity in Engineering, supported by the recent establishment of a Chair for Women in Engineering, Reimagining Engineering Education, the new Engineering Strategic Plan, and Engineering for Everyone.
