Elements
UGA Elements is a web-based system that helps you keep track of your achievements, some items are pre-loaded for you while others must be entered (publications for example). The system enables the university to collect, search, and report on the research, scholarship, creative works, and professional activities of faculty, postdocs, and graduate/professional students. The system helps users find research collaborators, helps administrators track their unit members’ achievements, and can generate activity and summary reports for many users. All UGA faculty members are expected to maintain up-to-date profiles as part of the annual performance evaluation process.
