Across the College, 103 staff have been promoted to positions of senior lecturer, teaching fellow, senior research fellow, reader or professor. The 2011 promotions round sees 34 academics receive professorships, acknowledging their international standing and leadership in their subject or profession.
Staff are nominated for promotion by their department at the start of each academic year. They can also nominate themselves. Nominations are then considered by the Faculty or the Academic Promotions Committee.
Deputy Rector Professor Stephen Richardson, who chairs the Academic Promotions Committee, said: "Once again this year, the field was extremely strong, with many outstanding and well-rounded applications. My sincere congratulations to all who have been promoted – without exception on their own merits."
