Research Focus
Research interests and academic direction should be visible early.
Publications
Articles, conference papers, and chapters need clean grouping.
Teaching
Teaching, TA work, supervision, and course support can matter.
Projects and Funding
Research projects, grants, scholarships, and institutional support are strong signals.

Common mistakes

Better academic-CV logic
