He received degrees from Curtin University and the University of Melbourne in Australia and a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, USA. Dovey has been a Visiting Professor or Visiting Scholar at Berkeley, The Bartlett (UCL) London, City University of New York, the University of Minnesota and University of Nottingham.
