How to List Acknowledgements on a CV

Curriculum Vitae, often abbreviated as "CV," is a Latin phrase that roughly translates to mean, "Life of Curriculum." It is used by academics as a type of extended resume in which the researcher lists his career accomplishments. In many cases, a CV item might require an acknowledgment or an entire acknowledgment section. While there's no absolute way you should acknowledge someone on your CV, there are a few options.

Instructions

    • 1

      Always cite a co-author, co-presenter or co-researcher with the work with which it is associated. This helps keep clear for what piece of work you are acknowledging the person. The listing of acknowledgments for a piece of work should follow the style guidelines of your discipline. For example, a Communication scholar would present the piece of work and acknowledgments as if he were citing the work with APA format on his "References" page.

      Present a brief acknowledgment section under each category, as necessary. For example, when citing your doctoral thesis you may wish to acknowledge the manuscript committee. In this case, create a subsection called "Manuscript Committee" underneath the section describing your doctoral thesis. List the name of the person you want to acknowledge and include her institution in parenthesis next to her name.

    • 3

      Write a longer, narrative-type format at the end of the CV to acknowledge anybody who has had a lasting impact on your curriculum. This is most similar to the acknowledgment page you see in a book. Write the name of the person you wish to acknowledge, the institution or business with whom he is associated and why you wish to acknowledge him.
