Faculty Profile List

The Faculty Profile List component displays information about a department's faculty members.

Uses

Many Concordia departments use the Faculty Profile List component to list their faculty members.

  • Some departments use one Faculty Profile List to list their faculty members. 
  • Others use a separate Faculty Profile List for each category of faculty, e.g. one for full-time faculty and another for part-time faculty.

Each Faculty Profile List pulls in information from an external database. You can choose how much of this information to display.

Full display shows the name, title, email and research interests for each faculty member in the list. If you click the checkbox beside Show thumbnail, it will display a small photo of each profile:

Alternatively, you can display Name, title, and status: 

3 professors' names, each followed by their title and department

Or Name only:

Best practices

New faculty profiles

If you have new faculty who require a faculty profile:

Adding a Faculty Profile List to your page

  1. In the AEM Sidekick, go to Concordia Special, then add the Faculty Profile List component. If you'd like to categorize faculty members by role (Full-time vs. part-time, etc), add a Faculty Profile List component for each category of faculty.
  2. Open the component for editing. Note: Each Faculty Profile List connects to a large external database, and the component may take a moment to "wake up" and allow editing.
  3. In the Settings tab:
    • Choose whether to Display as Full display; Name, title, and status; or Name only. If you're unsure which to choose, ask your Communications Advisor.
    • If you've chosen Full display or Name, title and status and you'd like to display a small photo beside each faculty member, check the box beside Show thumbnail.
