The Honorary Professorship is a symbolic academic recognition and not an earned academic position. Holders may use the honorary title in ceremonial, academic, or professional contexts but should always include the proper designation — (Honoris Causa) or (h.c.) — to distinguish it from an earned professorship.
Examples of proper usage include:
Formal Writing:
- Professor Jane Smith, Honorary Professor of Digital Strategy (Honoris Causa)
Abbreviated Form:
- Prof. Jane Smith (h.c.)
Honorary Prefix:
- Professor (h.c.) Jane Smith
