Faculty Insight is a search tool that enables scholars to find experts at their institution and nationally. Scholar profiles are pre-populated with recent activity data sourced from Academic Analytics. This includes articles, books, grants, awards, conference proceedings, and patents. аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÄÚÄ»ÐÅÏ¢also supplements Faculty Insight data with additional faculty activity sourced from Digital Measures. Scholar profiles are also fed to the public-facing Faculty Expertise Portal.

Scholar profile keywords are matched to funding opportunity data from a third-party funding database. Grant opportunities are updated daily and contain roughly 40,000 open funding opportunities from over 10,000 public and private entities.

You can save notes on Scholar, Funding, and Award Profiles as well as Projects; these notes are private to you as the user. You can also export calendar notifications to your Outlook calendar or other calendar tools.

The notifications feature gives you the option to receive email notifications containing information on:

• targeted funding opportunities keyed to your research interests
• search activity within Faculty Insight related to you and your research interests
• collaboration opportunities

You will not receive any of this content unless you enable notifications in your Faculty Insight account (i.e., you must opt in for emails to be sent). You can do this by going to the main menu and clicking on the Notifications section, and this will open up options to adjust the settings for what type of notifications you will receive and how frequently, as well as adjust privacy settings for what colleagues see about your own searches.

The display setting function allows you to limit the visibility of items that you do not want visible in the public-facing Faculty Expertise Portal profile. You can change the display settings for each item in your Works tab by using a drop-down menu that is located at the far right of an item’s section on the screen. There are two display options: Public and Internal. The default setting for all items is public.

Public means that an item is visible to everyone on Faculty Insight as well as the public-facing Faculty Expertise Portal.

Internal means that an item will only be visible on Faculty Insight (i.e., to people with аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÄÚÄ»ÐÅÏ¢logins).

2. Visit a scholar’s Related Terms and People tab for people similar to this scholar at your own institution or nationally.
3. View the Collaborations tab of a scholar to see other scholars with whom they have worked.
4. From your own scholar profile page, check the Related Terms and People tab for a list of scholars at your institution and nationally with word clouds similar to your own.

Two-way data integration is in development, Academic Analytics hopes to roll this out soon. This will be valueable for disciplines that utlize a vareity of creative scholarship activities and allow faculty to add them to their profiles.
