Thinking about applying for Academic Promotion?

Academic staff members who wish to apply for promotion and their supervisors are encouraged to attend a workshop in April that will guide them through the promotions process, including changes arising from the annual promotions review. Additional seminars that focus on evidencing the case for promotion are also available for applicants.

Information for applicants

Academic Staff members considering applying for promotion are encouraged to participate in an upcoming Preparing for Academic Promotions Workshop.

These face-to-face workshops have been well received by previous participants, and include:

• An overview of the promotions process
• A presentation by a recent successful applicant that covers how they planned and prepared for promotion
• Guidance from the Chair and an experienced member of the Academic Promotions Committee about the Committee’s expectations of applications
• A question and answer session with the panel of presenters
