Strategic Budget Planning


Queen's budget planning process is designed to support the university’s strategic priorities, including providing a dynamic student learning experience, advancing innovative research, and supporting a diverse community of students, staff, and faculty.

As operating grants and tuition fees make up a substantial portion of the university’s revenue, comprehensive enrolment and budget planning are vital to protecting the university's financial sustainability.
