How does Elements work?

Data In

Faculty member profiles are initiated in Elements based on appointment records in PeopleSoft, which is the Human Resources system of record at the University of Utah. The Elements system then aggregates information about the faculty member from a number of internal and external databases to populate the four main areas of the profile: Publications, Grants, and Teaching Activities. This data collection is done regularly, making it easier for faculty members to keep their profiles up to date. Faculty members also have the ability to edit and add/remove items in their profile.

Data Out

Selected information in a faculty member’s Elements account is automatically pushed to their Discovery public profile. Faculty have the ability to export their profile as Academic CVs and NIH Biographical Sketches, in either PDF or Word format. For more information, see the pages on Discovery Public Profiles and Exporting Profile Data.
