Welcome to the University of Sydney Academic Promotions online application system.

Intending applicants are advised to consult with their Head of School, relevant Associate Dean or supervisor as early as possible before preparing their application. It is also important to refer to the Academic Promotions Applicant Information, which sets out the policy and application requirements.

The online system for applicants

The process for applying for an academic promotion is now fully online via confidential web pages. The system streamlines the submission of applicant information and replaces the need for applicants to submit multiple paper copies of their application to the Academic Promotions Unit. Applicants can build and save their application online prior to submission. Please refer to important dates for applicants, for submission deadlines.

The online system for Heads of School

Heads of School submit reports for applicants within their School via the online system. An email request will be sent to Heads of School inviting them to log onto specific pages within the system to submit their report/s. They may also login to the system (using their Unikey login details) to view an "to do list" outlining tasks awaiting their action.

Please go to the login page (see link on the left) or click on the button below, and enter your Unikey details (user ID and password). You can start building and saving completed sections of your application. You can then return at any time to continue working on it.
