Curriculum Vitae

An effective CV is an aesthetically pleasing document that showcases your professional and personal accomplishments in an organized and easy to follow fashion.

Curriculum vitae is a Latin expression which can be roughly translated as the course of my life. A curriculum vitae, commonly referred to as a CV, is a full record of your educational and academic background as well as research and teaching experience, publications, presentations, honors and awards, professional affiliations, and more.

A curriculum vitae, just like a résumé, is a living document, one that will change and develop as you gain additional accomplishments, interests, and work experience. Therefore, a CV should be updated regularly and often. When reviewing this information, note that this section discusses CVs and résumés within the context of the American usage of the terms; usage and meaning of the terms vary from country to country.
