3.3.11 Standards of Behaviour

The teacher/learner relationship is based on mutual trust, respect and responsibility. The Faculty of Medicine therefore has many legitimate expectations related to the behaviour of students and faculty members. A Code of Conduct for the undergraduate medical program is printed in the Students' Handbook (distributed at orientation) and may be reviewed on the Web at www.medicine. mcgill.ca/ugme. The Faculty is committed to providing a learning environment which respects this Code. Student/faculty harassment, abuse and mistreatment are not tolerated. An evaluation protocol for professional behaviour is being piloted in selected clinical rotations. It is anticipated that a longitudinal evaluation of professionalism will be a requirement for all curricular components during the year 2005-2006. Students who demonstrate inappropriate professional conduct or are found guilty of a criminal offence may be dismissed from the program.
