Preparing CVs and Biosketches
Thursday, January 25, 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm EST
A curriculum vitae (CV) is an essential document in the academic sphere. CVs are frequently required to apply for funding, awards, and academic positions. A well-organized and comprehensive CV can elevate your application by clearly communicating your achievements and track record of productivity.
Biosketches are required for many different types of funding applications and share many elements found in a CV, a research statement, or academic transcript. Although biosketches are often quite prescriptive, sometimes you still need a little guidance.
This session will cover:
- the basics of CV and biosketch structures
- best practices for describing your experiences and achievements for maximum impact
- how to adapt your CV to different audiences
