Curriculum Vitae (Public CV) Templates
Templates for faculty CVs.
The curriculum vitae (from the Latin curriculum (course) and vitae (life) represents a faculty member’s professional achievements as it summarizes, often in chronological order, one’s educational and academic history, including publications, research grants, fellowships, relevant clinical experience, patents, licensures, consultancies, and exhibitions or other artistic endeavors.
House Bill 2504 requires the public posting of the curriculum vitae for all faculties engaged in classroom instruction. As such, CVs should follow certain guidelines, most notably the inclusion of professional information and the exclusion of personal information. Specifically, faculty members should not include home or other personal contact information, listing instead the university address, phone number, and email. Additionally, faculty should refrain from listing the names of their advisees in the curriculum vitae, listing that information instead in the annual report(s).
Information required by House Bill 2504 includes not only the curriculum vitae but also the centrally displayed course evaluations and course syllabi. All such information will be collected centrally and displayed through a single point of entry online. HB 2504 requires curriculum vitae to be current; local determination requires that the CV be updated annually to remain current. [On a related note, HB 2504 requires that the syllabus be available no later than the end of the first week of class; however other legislation requires that textbook information be publicly available prior to the beginning of the registration period for a given term.]
To simplify the submission of the CVs, faculty members may now submit their CVs at https://coursebook.utdallas.edu .
To facilitate the transfer of the information in the curriculum vitae to an electronic database, information should follow the prescribed format of the academic discipline in which each faculty member is engaged. As for the order of presentation, faculty should use the following structure for the sequence of the information within the curriculum vitae.
