MyU Preview: Faculty Career Tab

MyU Preview is a series giving a peek into pages within the new MyU. Keep in mind MyU is still in development and some things will be updated between now and Go Live.

After the new MyU launches with the Upgrade in spring 2015, faculty will have access to the new Faculty Career tab. The tab aggregates resources for tenured and tenure-track faculty. These resources are critical components for faculty development and success: key information about support and collaboration, as well as the policies pertaining to faculty appointments. Click the image to view more detail.


Faculty Career Tab: 1. Promotion and tenure related policies and forms 2. General resources for faculty 3. "Works" is a new system designed to make it easier for faculty to maintain an accurate record of activities and accomplishments 4. Links to service, collaboration and development opportunities

After The Upgrade: Reports

In April 2015*, the PeopleSoft upgrade is scheduled to usher in a new Reporting Center that consolidates UM Reports, UM Analytics, and PeopleSoft reports.The Reporting Center provides a single window into commonly used reports from multiple reporting tools. Features include: Improved search function, real-time data, ability to "like" favorite reports, links to the data warehouse web query tool, HRMS query viewer, and EDMS. 

Here is some important information for people who use reports:


  • Some UM Reports will go away because they aren't frequently used or the information is duplicated elsewhere.
  • Some reports will have different names and content.
  • UM Reports favorites and bookmarks will not transfer, so save a list in order to find them after The Upgrade
  • If you have created and saved ad-hoc queries in the Data Warehouse, they may need to change due to business process changes.
  • During the one to two-week system cutover period in April, most UM Reports will be view-only with static data.
  • Watch a short video to prepare for the new Reporting Center.
