Born in 1917 in Toronto, Canada, Dr. Jaques graduated with a B.A. Honors Science degree from the University of Toronto at the age of eighteen in 1935, an M.D. from Johns Hopkins Medical School at age twenty-three in 1939, and a Ph.D. in Social Relations from Harvard University. He was a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatry and was a Visiting Professor at George Washington University in Washington, DC, and Honorary Professor of the University of Buenos Aires.
Jaques served as a Major in the Canadian Army Medical Corps during WWII and acted as liaison to the British Army War Office Psychiatry Division, whose members developed the War Office Selection Boards.
He remained in England after the war where he was qualified under the renowned psychoanalyst Melanie Klein, and became a founding member of the Tavistock Institute, later moving away from the group-dynamics model toward a rigorous science-based model of human development and maturation. In 1964 he created the School of Social Sciences at the new Brunel University in London, where he served as Professor and Head of School. Jaques created chaired departments in psychology, sociology, social anthropology, economics, social policy and law.
