The objective of adjunct and clinical academic titles is to provide recognition by the University to persons who make a regular and significant contribution to the activities of the University.
Appointment to an adjunct or clinical position may recognise academic achievement, or professional or career achievements in industry or the community, that are of relevance to the work of the University. Clinical appointments1 are made only in those cases where the appointee has contact with patients in a bedside or clinical setting.
An appointment, and the level at which it is made, should normally correspond to the academic achievements or professional/career achievements of the nominee. If the nominee has held a recent academic title at a university, the title conferred will not normally be at a higher level than that previously held. However, in exceptional circumstances, the Dean of the Faculty may write to the Vice-Chancellor seeking a higher status.
