Historique
Courses in psychiatry began at Queen's University, with the establishment of the Faculty of Medicine, in 1854. Previously, students were introduced to various types of mental disorders in the basement of Kingston Penitentiary, where many mentally ill prisoners were incarcerated. Following the construction of Rockwood Mental Hospital on the outskirts of the City in 1855, students attended elective lectures at that institution. Dr C.K. Clarke, well known as the founder of the "mental hygiene" movement in Canada, was Professor of Psychiatry from 1895 to 1905. The Faculty of Medicine commenced a psychiatric teaching program at Kingston General Hospital in the 1930s. Today, the training of undergraduate medical students and graduate residents takes place at three local institutions: Kingston General Hospital, Hotel Dieu Hospital, and the Kingston Psychiatric Hospital. The Department currently has about 100 faculty, including cross and part-time appointments, and offers both undergraduate and graduate degree programmes.
