Dear Colleagues,

As you are aware the Academic Promotions Round for 2018 opens today, 1 June 2018 with an application closing date of Tuesday, 31 July 2018.

Applications for promotion will be coordinated through the College of Science and College of Health & Medicine LCP Secretariat, Ms Anita Ponturo. To assist with the process, it would be helpful if you could email the School Director and science.academicpromotions@anu.edu.au (in confidence) of your intention to apply before 30 June 2018.

To formally apply for academic promotion you will need to submit one complete electronic copy of your application to the science.academicpromotions@anu.edu.au contact email by 12pm, Monday, 23 July 2018.  This will allow the LPC Secretariat adequate time to coordinate the Supervisor, Research School Director and the College Dean’s review and endorsement of the applications, well before the formal closing date.  

Please note that Anita will lodge applications electronically from level B to D to the Local Promotions Committee (LPC) and the Level E applications to the University Promotions Committee (UPC).
