Welcome from the Chair, Department of Psychiatry & Behavioural Neurosciences

Our department is one of the most vibrant and creative academic departments in Canada, with a distinguished record for over 50 years of innovation, collegial scholarship, academic excellence  and world-renowned programs, which you will learn about in these pages. Our four core values—equity, innovation, partnerships and inclusivity—are encapsulated in our vision and in our equity, diversity and inclusion initiatives, while never forgetting that at the heart of everything we do is improving the well-being of the person living with a mental health or addiction problem and their family. We will continue to focus on our five strategic directions (.doc) and our emerging areas of academic excellence are broad, bringing together our programs and faculty to work collaboratively within a common framework.
