John Dewar is the Vice-Chancellor of La Trobe University.

Education

He was educated at Abingdon School[1] and Hertford College, Oxford.[2]

Career

Dewar is an internationally known family law specialist. He was a member of the Commonwealth Attorney-General's Family Law Pathways Advisory Group from 2000 to 2001 and a former member and chair of the Family Law Council from 1998 to 2004.[3]

Before working at Griffith University, Dewar taught at the universities of Lancaster and Warwick in the United Kingdom and was a fellow and tutor in law at Hertford College, Oxford. He was Head of Education and Training for Allen & Overy (London) from 1988-90[4]

Griffith University

Dewar moved from the United Kingdom in 1995 to take up a professorial position in the Griffith Law School,[5] where he eventually became the Dean of the Griffith Law School from 1999 to 2002. From 2002 to 2005, he was the Pro Vice-Chancellor for Business and Law and then became deputy vice-chancellor (academic).

University of Melbourne

Dewar moved to the University of Melbourne in April 2009, becoming the deputy vice-chancellor (global relations).[6] In September that year, he was appointed Provost of the University of Melbourne, a role similar to his previous one at Griffith University.[7] The role's focus was "on refining the Melbourne Model and ensuring successful second phase implementation of the University’s graduate programs in 2011".[8]

La Trobe University

John Dewar became the sixth Vice-Chancellor of La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia in January 2012.[9] On arrival, he declared that his goal was to ensure that La Trobe be "recognised as the natural alternative to Victoria’s two Group of Eight universities, with a unique appeal other universities can’t offer."[10] In 2014, Dewar announced 350 staff would be sacked without any voluntary redundancies.[11]
