Integrated Learning at Queen's is the name for an ongoing initiative of curriculum development that seeks to:
Provide students with the skills (communications, lifelong learning, teamwork) and attitudes (sensitivity to social, environmental and economic issues) which they need to elevate theory to practice
Increase the emphasis on active learning by the student, with the aim of increasing the depth of learning, the retention of understanding, and the development of learning skills
Provide students with an improved understanding of the role of other engineering disciplines and, indeed, of the role of professionals outside of engineering
