Running and Creating Reports and Using Faculty CVs in the Faculty Information System

The Faculty Information System (FIS) organizes and builds reports on teaching, research and service activities. Once faculty update their FIS screens, many outputs can be prepared, such as annual activity reports, accreditation reports, faculty CVs, department web profiles, and more.

Annual report documents generated from FIS must be saved as docx files before they can be sent via email. Find more information on emailing reports.

Faculty CVs

With the Faculty Information System, you can upload and customize your CV.  Administrators also have the option to upload CVs on faculty members' behalf.

  • Data Entry Report (Shows information entered on the faculty member’s behalf)
  • Scheduled Teaching by Faculty

Creating New Reports

From the Reports menu within the Faculty Information System, select Create a New Report. Choose Blank Document or Vita, and specify date range and other filters.
