ACADEMIC ANALYTICS
Academic Analytics provides powerful data and analysis tools that help universities reach their research potential. 鶹AV uses Academic Analytics to allow faculty to find each other, form research networks and compare our programs to our peer list of institutions. The Academic Analytics Database contains scholarly data on over 275,000 faculty members at over 400 US-based research universities. The data includes research grants, honorific awards, articles, books, conference proceedings, and more.
Within the Academic Analytics suite, Faculty Insight is a search tool that enables scholars to find targeted funding opportunities and experts at their institution. Scholar profiles are populated with recent activity sourced from Academic Analytics data; some institutions opt to supplement this with institutional data. This includes articles, books, grants, awards, conference proceedings, and patents. In addition to being able to make corrections and additions to their data, scholars can also add additional activity not currently captured.
