How Do We Write Academic Titles in AP Style?

Some of the academic titles examples are,

• Professor
• Chancellor
• Chairman
• President
• Dean, etc.

According to AP Style, you cannot capitalize any academic titles within sentences. Titles should be in lowercase. For example,

1. She has a master’s degree in Computer Science; she should apply as a professor at his own university.

2. The chairman is not allowed to ask questions about our personal life.

Capitalize Academic Titles

You have to remember just one rule through which you can capitalize the academic titles.

You can capitalize an academic title when used before names.

For example,

1. Professor Smith asked us to submit all the assignments before deadline.

2. If you want an appointment with Dean Smith, then I will fix a suitable time for you.
