The Recognition of Distinction Scheme is an annual exercise to confer the title of full professor at the University of Oxford. The awards are assessed using three criteria:
- an ongoing research record which is characterised by a significant influence on the field of study and is of a high order of excellence and of international standing, and the quality of which in terms of research distinction is at least equal to that expected of those appointed to full professorships at other leading international research universities.
- a ongoing record of effective teaching for the University and for colleges, concomitant with the duties of the University post and the college fellowship, where one is held.
- Good citizenship which may include activities such as the holding of University and/or college offices, service on University and/or college committees, and leadership of equality, diversity and inclusion initiatives, amongst others.
