Curriculum Vitae (CV)

 

Curriculum vitaes are usually used when applying for academic or research positions and are slightly different than resumes. A CV can be as long as you want it and can be several pages in length. Your CV will have similar sections like a resume and may include contact information, education, teaching experience, research experience, published articles, presentations made, professional associations, and work experience. You should target your CV as much as you can and place the most important or relevant information at the top portion and work downward in importance.
