What is Interfolio?

Interfolio is a module-based Faculty Information System that supports all stages of the faculty and academic professionals’ lifecycle at Lehigh.

Interfolio will:  

  • Be a central hub for faculty and academic professional information including CVs. 
  • Streamline processes that the Office of the Provost carries out in collaboration with other academic units. 
  • Integrate with key institutional systems to optimize data management and build operational efficiencies. 
  • Provide authorized users with self-service access to faculty data. 

 

The Modules

The Interfolio project will be carried out in a phased approach. Lehigh will be implementing the Interfolio Faculty Information System product suite, which includes the following modules: 

  • Review, Promotion and Tenure (RPT) - Streamlines and centralizes data collection with electronic forms and workflows to support and track academic review processes from end to end.
  • Faculty Search (FS) - Covers the entire academic recruitment process – including the job board and applications, applicant support, confidential letters and recommendations.
  • Lifecycle Management (LM) - Manages scholar career paths, assists in the planning of upcoming faculty career milestones, and tracks academic appointments across the institution.
  • Faculty Activity Reporting (FAR) - Provides a central hub for collecting and storing activity data and supporting materials including up-to-date CVs for all Lehigh academics.
