Curriculum vitae

WRITING A CURRICULUM VITAE (CV)
A curriculum vitae or CV is similar to a resume in that it provides an overview of your professional and educational experience. The difference between the two primarily lies in content and purpose. A CV is typically developed for application for teaching or research positions in a university or research setting. A resume is prepared for employers outside the academic environment.
The CV should begin with name, contact information (including email), and education.
Information listed under education, teaching, research, service, or other categories should
generally be listed in reverse chronological order, with the most recent listed first.
Education: Include the name of the colleges or universities attended, city and state of each,
degrees earned, area(s) of study, and graduation dates. List the title of each thesis/dissertation,
as well as the primary advisor.
Beyond this basic information, category headings used within CVs may vary widely. However,
there are certain major areas that require mention, regardless of specific headings used. These
are:
• Teaching
• Service
Teaching: List all teaching fellowships, assistantships, or any other experiences working with
students in a classroom/laboratory setting. You may also choose to list teaching interests or
similar categories.
Research: Include all relevant research experience in your area of specialization. You may
choose to list publications, conference presentations and any other evidence of scholarly work in
this section.
Service: Include service to the university or community. You may also include professional
associations, volunteer work, committee membership, etc. in this section.
As mentioned above, it is important to incorporate evidence of teaching, research, and service in your CV, but choice of category headings to cover these areas is purely subjective. Most CVs include a sampling of the category headings listed below. Choose category headings that emphasize your particular strengths and achievements. Also, depending on the position to which you are applying, it may make more sense to rearrange categories. For instance, if you are applying for a college teaching position where teaching is the focus, it is recommended to focus on that general area early in the CV. If research is the primary focus of the institution to which you are applying, listing research-related categories near the beginning of the CV will be most effective. ν UNIVERSITY CAREER SERVICES ν

Be sure to end your CV with a short list of references, if possible. Supply the name, address, telephone/fax number and email address of 3 -6 individuals who can comment on your ability to succeed in the position for which you are applying. Choose your references wisely, i.e., persons who know you and your work well, and think about choosing people with high external visibility. Be sure to ask their permission before submitting their names. Whenever you provide reference information to an institution, advise your referees that they may be contacted. Keep them up-to-date on your professional activities and provide them with a copy of your CV. 2 to 4 pages for a new professional 4 to 7 pages for a person with more experience 10 pages maximum • Omit reference to marital status, children, health, spouse's work, religious affiliation, and date • Do not include headings such as "Curriculum Vitae", "Personal Information", or "Name" • Use action verbs to begin every job description • Add a header with name and page number to each page after the first • Be sure to have a counselor at UCS critique your CV when you have completed your draft Sample Category Headings
