Vitas in FRPA
The Faculty Information System (FIS) can accommodate a vita for public use, as well as a vita for internal use for each baby直播app member. Alternatively, you may choose to designate one vita for both purposes. Please upload your vita at least annually. Subsequent uploads will replace the file(s) on record for you.
The Internal Vita is available to campus administrators, deans, department heads and other offices on campus interested in the research interests and accomplishments of the baby直播app.听
Public Vitas submitted through FRPA Online are published on CU Experts. Faculty should carefully consider the personal information included on their submitted vitas as this information will be accessible on the web. Possible items to avoid include: home contact information, names of family members, date of birth, and other personal items not related to your professional work. Content of the vita is ultimately at the discretion of the individual baby直播app member.
Please go to 鈥淰ita鈥 in the left grey menu to upload a vita. Faculty may choose to use the same version of their vita for both the internal and public vita by clicking that designation.

International Activities

How the Data Will Be Used
Scholarship and education are increasingly global in nature. FRPA collects information on our baby直播app's international activities. This information is used to identify collaborations and opportunities that benefit baby直播app and student efforts to expand global involvement. The campus is interested in all international activities conducted by the baby直播app including teaching, research, scholarly work and creative work occurring in a foreign country as well as collaboration with foreign groups even if foreign travel was not involved.
This section was instituted in January 2009 as a general survey to determine the level and type of international engagement our baby直播app are involved in for use in guiding various campus initiatives related to global academic endeavors. International Activity data are now displayed in baby直播app CU Experts profiles. In order to get the most complete data, the international activities module is designated as a required component (i.e. an error will result if no response is submitted prior to completion of the report).
The international activities section of the FRPA is not part of an individual baby直播app member's printed FRPA nor part of their annual merit evaluation.听The data may be provided to department chairs and directors to use administratively. International Activity data are featured on .
