Promotion to professor is considered annually by the Senate Professorial Promotions Committee. While promotion focuses on the period since last promotion or appointment, applicants are required to submit applications that comprehensively cover their academic careers (including periods of service prior to joining The University of Queensland).

The rank of professor is reserved for individuals with outstanding performance records. Quality is a key criterion and, although no quotas are prescribed, promotion to this rank is expected to be limited in number annually. Successful applicants are expected to meet the standards for Chair level appointments at major universities.

The Procedures below describe the application requirements.
