Emeritus Professors

The title Emeritus Professor may, in recognition of distinguished service to the academic life of the University of Canberra, be conferred on any person who holds or has held in the University the rank of professor. 

The title may be conferred on any person who holds or has held the rank of professor in the University normally for a period of at least five years and is about to retire or resign or has retired or resigned. 

The title may be conferred on a person who has held the rank of professor at the University of Canberra for less than five years if they have also held that rank at another recognised university and the total period of service as a professor is at least five years. 

The conferring of the title is a means of recognising continuing membership of the University, after the Emeritus Professor has left the service of the University.
