Professorial CV Template

professorial CV

This is a CV template for academic posts, especially professorships. It is designed as a model and a basis for your own academic CV.

There is no need to include a personal statement on an academic CV. Start by describing your relevant qualifications.

A professorial CV will need to show that you have the relevant experience in teaching and research but also that you have held senior appointments within your institution and in a visiting capacity.

The challenge for a professorial CV is what to include and what to exclude in terms of teaching experience and publications. If you list every course you have ever taught, every book or article written, every conference attended, your CV will run to 20 pages! Limit your listings to the last five years unless this excludes your most important work. The idea is to show your most recent areas of expertise and focus if possible.

Do not forget to include the contact details for two referees at the end.
