To edit a faculty profile at Florida Tech, follow these steps to ensure your information is up-to-date:


1. Access the Faculty or University Portal

  • Go to Florida Tech’s designated faculty or department portal, often accessed through the university website. If your department uses a content management system (CMS) or intranet, this may be your starting point.
  • Log in with your university credentials. If you’re unsure of the login page, check with your department administrator or IT support.

2. Locate the Profile Management Section

  • Look for a section titled “Faculty Profile,” “Edit Profile,” or “Personal Information” under faculty resources or within the dashboard.
  • Each department may have a slightly different setup, so options can vary depending on whether your department uses a specific CMS (such as Drupal or WordPress).

3. Update Profile Information Fields

  • You may be able to update various fields, such as:
    • Name, Title, and Contact Information (e.g., phone number, email, office location)
    • Education and Credentials
    • Research Interests and Publications
    • Courses and Specializations
    • Achievements and Awards
  • Some fields may be open text, while others require specific inputs. Be sure to format information as needed by department guidelines.

4. Add or Update Your Profile Photo

  • If there’s an option to add or update your profile picture, follow the system’s requirements for photo size, format, and resolution to maintain consistency with other faculty profiles.

5. Save and Preview Changes

  • After updating, click “Save,” “Update,” or “Submit” to apply the changes.
  • Preview your profile to ensure everything appears correctly and check for formatting or display issues.

6. Seek Assistance if Needed

  • IT Support: If you encounter login issues or technical challenges, reach out to Florida Tech IT Support.
  • Department Administrator: Some departments have a designated webmaster or administrator who can assist with profile updates if permissions are restricted.

Regularly updating your profile helps keep students, colleagues, and potential collaborators informed about your latest research, courses, and academic contributions. You can also consult the faculty resources page for additional guidance.
