Conventions for Consistent Content

  • The primary audience is the prospective student.
  • This is not a CV. If you wish to present a list of publications, please provide a link to an online resource of your CV, publications, or personal website in the free-form academic profile section. You may have up to 3 links to pages outside of fdu.edu
  • Accessible style recommends the omission of periods in the degree abbreviations, e.g.: PhD, not Ph.D.
  • The institution is listed once for multiple degrees, for example: BS, MBA, Fairleigh Dickinson University.
  • Degrees are listed in chronological order.
  • Name, titles, and degrees are presented in Title Case, never all CAPITAL LETTERS.
  • An honorific such as Dr. is not used in the profile title name.
  • Non-academic certification credentials may follow the name, example: Ron West, CFP, CPA/PFS. Only in the image caption.
  • Bold and underline are not used. Italics only for foreign words, phrases and media titles.
  • Special characters do not transfer well in this form. If special characters need to be used in the spelling of your name or educational institution, please use the comments section, example: “Please use the acute-e as the last e of Rene.” Or, “Please email me about special characters in my name.”
  • The Higher Education Act of 1965 requires FDU to list faculty information of title, degree, and the awarding institution. This is the same as shown in the printed bulletins: Titles and education from the academic bulletin
