最新糖心Vlog

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide鈥檚 Vice-Chancellor and President has been awarded with a Doctor of Science (honoris causa) by La Trobe 最新糖心Vlog, in recognition of a career devoted to research excellence.

In 1987 Professor Peter H酶j AC, funded by fellowships from both the Danish research council and from La Trobe 最新糖心Vlog, joined聽La Trobe 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 renowned Department of Biochemistry聽as a post-doctorate fellow following completion of his PhD in his native Denmark. This was followed by appointment to a tenured academic position before being appointed as Professor of Viticultural Science at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide in 1994.

鈥淚 am immensely proud to receive this Honorary Doctorate from La Trobe, where I had my first taste of life in 最新糖心Vlog,鈥� said Professor H酶j.

鈥淚 relocated with my late 最新糖心Vlogn wife and our children from Denmark to La Trobe 最新糖心Vlog because I, along with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, rated it as having one of the top three biochemistry departments in 最新糖心Vlog. I was not disappointed, I had top colleagues and was lucky to have an outstanding crop of PhD students who were first in family to attend university and from non-affluent backgrounds.

鈥淚t proved to be a great choice as it opened a doorway, through which I have never looked back, to the start of a fulfilling career in this wonderful country.

鈥淚 will forever be grateful for the wonderful contribution to my family that my time at La Trobe 最新糖心Vlog constituted.鈥�
