What is on the FRPA?

The Faculty Report of Professional Activities or FRPA primarily collects information on one’s annual activities in the categories of Teaching, Scholarly Work, Creative Work and Service. Information on research and expertise, international activities and other profile information are collected here as a centralized effort to support campus and departmental needs including web presence for units, grant reporting, media requests, programmatic needs and more. Faculty are asked to upload a current curriculum vitae each year. Academic units rely heavily on the information provided through the FRPA process.

Timing

FRPA reports cover the calendar year, January 1 to December 31, and are usually due February 1 of the following year.

Faculty may change portions of their FRPA that appear in their public profiles at any time, and may enter items for the current reporting cycle throughout the year.
