Benefits to holding an Academic Title

Academic Title Recognition

Many of Queensland’s best professionals in medical, health and behavioural sciences are UQ Academic Title Holders. It is their enthusiasm and dedication that keeps the Faculty of Medicine at the forefront of worldwide trends in health, behavioural and medical education and research. The Faculty places enormous value on the work of these dedicated health professionals and awards Academic Titles in recognition of their contributions to health education and research supervision.

UQ Library Access

The UQ Library has one of the largest academic collections in Australia and by far the largest in Queensland. It provides an exceptional collection of health and medical books, more than 3500 health and medical e-Journals, drug information online and access to medical databases. The Library has a number of outlets across the campuses and title holders are able to use their available resources.

The Library can also be accessed online to search and place holds on books and access a large range of databases and e-journals. Online library access is available to all title holders.

The Library website also contains a helpful how to section, which covers a wide range of topics. For researchers we recommend to view the following overview; UQ Systems for Researchers.
