Academic CV Template
It is often recommended that commercial sector CVs should be only two pages long. This is not true for academic CVs. It is acceptable to submit a CV of around 4-5 pages, but no more. If your CV is longer than 5 pages then remove the oldest conference papers, publications and grant awards and concentrate on your most recent activity.
Below is an academic CV template. If you are going to use this template please remove all instructions on how to complete each section.
