Visiting Academics

Visitors are responsible for applying for their visas, and should be assisted by the Faculty or organisational unit that they will be working with. Human Resources can advise on the most appropriate visa, and will issue offers of honorary and visiting appointments required by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship as part of the application process.
