  2. An academic vita is a summary of your professional training and background. • It serves much the same purpose as a résumé in the business world. • In other words, a vita is an autobiographical account that provides the information on which a preliminary decision is made whether to admit you to a program or hire you for a job. • Largely on the basis of your vita your application will be rejected outright, put into a doubtful category, or considered worth exploring. What is an Academic Vita?

  3. Plural form is Vitae. • Singular form is Vita. • While resumes are rarely longer than one page, CVs usually are many pages long. • Starting to work on a Vita, which is an ongoing project till the day you die, will keep you focused and will continually allow you to keep in mind where you need improvement. • THIS IS A VERY BIG DEAL!!! What is an Academic Vita?

  4. The vita will stand in for you during the initial phase of screening hundreds of applicants. • It conveys who you are and what the graduate program or employer will get if you are chosen. What is an Academic Vita?

  5. Make your vita a clear and concise summary of your professional qualifications. • Try to obtain copies of several vitae from individuals who are at your stage of professional development or slightly ahead. • One of the best ways to construct a vita is by seeing how others have done it. • Take the time to create an elegant and inviting format, and be sure to laser print the final product on high quality paper. • Style matters, and your vita should appear professional, uncluttered, and friendly to the eye. • Be sure to check the vita carefully for mistakes and typographical errors. • Without exception, it must be absolutely error-free. • Have your faculty adviser, colleagues, family, and friends look over your vita before you send it out. • They will undoubtedly spot weaknesses you have overlooked and may be able to suggest ways of overcoming them. “Dos” of Vita Preparation.

  6. DON'T give the appearance of padding your vita by including such things as extra-wide margins, high school accomplishments, or excessive detail about your research and teaching experience. • (e.g., details associated with running an experiment, such as "I contacted participants, scheduled them for sessions..."). • DON'T list irrelevant personal information such as height, weight, health, or military status. • Listing hobbies and outside interests is also optional and should only be done if you feel it will enhance your image as a well-rounded professional. • DON'T list categories that have only one item. • (with one exception: a section entitled "Publication" is acceptable for listing a single publication). • DON'T use category subheadings that are more ambitious than their content. • (e.g., "Articles, Publications, and Grant Proposals" followed by only one grant proposal). Later in your career, you can add some of these sections (for example, "Professional Activities" might include editorships, memberships in academic or grant-reviewing committees, consulting work, and so on). “Don’ts” of Vita Preparation.
