The Queen's School of Computing provides an exceptional graduate program distinguished by its excellence, variety, creativity, and impact. Research initiatives cover both conventional and groundbreaking areas of computer science. For instance, researchers are creating underwater wireless sensor networks to explore the largely uncharted ocean depths, while others work on improving medical procedures to enhance precision and patient comfort. Some scholars investigate unconventional computing systems, while teams develop natural human-computer interaction interfaces. Our work focuses on strengthening database security, improving software dependability, and advancing artificial intelligence. Students benefit from collaborative opportunities with Johns Hopkins University and our NSERC CREATE initiative in Ultra-Large Scale Software Systems, which connects them with industry leaders while developing professional competencies through applied research and real-world experience. MSc theses address focused technical challenges achievable within the program's two-year timeframe, though many students opt to extend their research beyond minimum requirements, often completing their work in twelve months or more.
