Introduction Jeremy Uffens Director, University Faculty Information & Support Eric Lippincott IT Product Manager Mily Iriarte-Ahon Project Coordinator

Vision & Purpose • Create a combined database of faculty activity for university-wide reporting. • Add utility for faculty within FAR (CV and biosketch tools) while improving usability for faculty and college admins. • Provide more options for importing faculty data, including bibliography files & systems (e. g. , Pub. Med, Scopus, Academic Analytics). • Create a dedicated team focused solely on creating and supporting faculty tools and data. • Integrate with other systems and provide data to assist in accreditation processes.
