About the organizer
Led by Vice-Principal (University Relations) Michael Fraser, the portfolio supports the strategic vision and academic mission of the institution striving to ensure that Queen’s maintains its leadership position nationally as Canada's quintessential balanced academy, recognized equally for its research excellence and its transformative student learning experience and being a destination for exceptional people.
The role of University Relations is to build and enhance Queen’s profile and reputation through the stewardship of relations with government, universities, media and the public.
