Faculty Activity Reporting (Faculty360) Overview
Prefer a video? Watch the Faculty360 Faculty Activity Reporting Overview video.
Faculty Activity Reporting (also known as Faculty360) provides a centralized information hub containing teaching, research, service, and other faculty activity data with the goal of supporting faculty through processes such as retention, tenure, and promotion review, research collaboration, and mentoring.
With Faculty360, users can compile information on their activities, manage their faculty portfolios, search for collaborators within the network, generate CVs and reports, connect to professional development resources, and access campus data on teaching, grants, and publications.
Select information can also be shared with the public to encourage collaboration and generate news media coverage, with faculty consent. Public profiles will be generated based on information from Faculty360. Biography, Education, Administrative Appointments, Work Experience, Professional Licensures, Honors and Awards, Teaching and Research Interests, Courses Taught, and Scholarly Contributions can be included in the public profiles. Faculty members will be able to choose what information to share publicly.
Data from CSUF's previous faculty profile database has been transferred into Faculty Activity Reporting (Faculty360). However, the data may not align perfectly between the two platforms, so you may need to locate and edit data. You can review data in the Profile and Activities pages. Alternatively, you can generate a CV from the Vitas & Biosketches page to see what data has already been entered.
This section will show you how to navigate to Faculty Activity Reporting (Faculty360) in Interfolio.
1. Log in to Interfolio.
There are three ways to access Interfolio:

- Activities is where faculty can record their professional activities such as courses taught, scholarly/creative output, mentored students, grants, committee work and other institutional service, professional development, etc. This section will require frequent updates as the faculty member advances through their career.
- Forms & Reports contains any custom input forms created by campus, view forms that have been initiated as part of the institution's formal workflow process, and generate reports to view activity submissions.
- Vitas & Biosketches is where faculty can generate CVs and import their ORCID data into Faculty360.
- Find Colleagues is a function that searches active faculty records so faculty can find colleagues with similar interests.
Building your Faculty Portfolio
This section will go over how to make changes to the information in your Faculty Activity Reporting (Faculty360) profile. The profile consists of mostly static information that changes minimally over time—personal details, education, professional history, interests, and the like, so this page will not require frequent updates.
Some information fills in automatically from other records and cannot be edited on Faculty360. On the editing screen, such fields will be marked with a padlock icon. If any of the autopopulated information is incorrect, you may do the following to initiate the change:
Legal Name: Take an updated Social Security Card reflecting your new name to the Payroll Office (CP-700).
Preferred Name: You can update your preferred name in your profile, but the change will only apply to Faculty360 and will not be reflected in other campus systems. To update your preferred name in Canvas, class roster, and the like, email [email protected] to request a preferred name change.
Contact Information: Contact your Department IT Coordinator (DITC). The DITC will need to enter the changes in the campus Account Management system.
Faculty Rank: Updates are made at the end of each fall semester. Contact [email protected] to request an update if your rank is not accurately represented.
Highest/Terminal Degree: Enter your highest degree earned into Faculty360 and inform [email protected] of any changes so that your HR record can be updated.
1. In the Faculty360 navigation menu, click Profile.
2. Click on a header to expand that section. Click Add or Edit to make changes.
In sections where you can add multiple entries (e.g. Education, Work Experience), the button will be labeled Add. In sections where you can change information but not add multiple entries (e.g. Personal Information), the button will be labeled Edit.

- Click the Add or Edit button to make changes to that section.
3. Enter the information that you want to add. Click one of the Save buttons to publish the information.
The alerts at the top of the page will provide helpful information about what data can be entered or edited on the page, as well as who to contact if you're unable to make the changes yourself in Faculty360.
Sections marked with an asterisk (*) are required.

Activities Overview
Interfolio periodically pulls information about scholarly publications from major data sources and allows faculty members to validate this data and add it to their portfolio. The Matched Activities section on your Interfolio homepage is where you can review, add, or delete matches found by Interfolio Data Service.
You can also import into all activity sections that you have also recorded on ORCID and import activities into the Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activities section from Google Scholar, Medline/PubMed, or ARXIV.
Other activity fields will require manual input if not matched through Interfolio Data Service or importing from the platforms mentioned above.
- Clicking on Activities in the navigation menu will open the Activities page where you can view all activity entries across all activity types.
- The Matched Activities block shows activities that have been matched to you by Interfolio Data Service.
View instructions on reviewing and adding activities that have been matched to you - The Add Activity block allows you to select an activity type from the drop-down menu, which will take you to the input form for that activity type.
- The Import button in the Import Activities block will take you to the Scholarly Contributions & Creative Productions input page where you can choose to import an activity or add one manually.
