School > SoM Home > Future Staff > Academic Title Holders
The School of Medicine has a long and proud history of producing the very highest quality doctors and Academic Title Holder are absolutely fundamental to our mission.
Academic Title Holders play key roles in learning, discovery, and engagement, and are mainly, but not exclusively, doctors working in Queensland Health facilities, in private hospitals and in general practice,
UQ welcomes applications for academic titles from health professionals who contribute significantly to its teaching and/or research activities and who are not paid directly or indirectly by the University.
Committees established by the School of Medicine Executive assess appointments up to and including Associate Professor. This Committee is responsible for assessing and recommending the appropriate academic title to the Executive Dean, Faculty of Health Sciences.
Appointments are offered for a period of three years. Health professionals who hold academic titles are eligible to apply for promotion in the final year of their three year appointment.
