2.1.1 Appointment as Professor Emeritus

Council may by resolution, and in recognition of distinguished academic service to QUT, confer the title of Professor Emeritus. Distinguished academic service in this context includes a professor awarded the title of Distinguished Professor (see policy B/2.2 ) and normally those with 10 years or more service as a professor or equivalent.

A Professor about to retire or resign, or a former Professor of QUT, will be given the title of Professor Emeritus. A Distinguished Professor about to retire or resign, or a former Distinguished Professor of QUT, will be given the title of Distinguished Professor Emeritus.

In cases where the title is conferred on a staff member about to retire or resign, the title will apply from the date of retirement or resignation.

A Distinguished Professor Emeritus or Professor Emeritus is regarded as a Professor of QUT for all ceremonial purposes.
