A '''''curriculum vitae''''' ([[Latin]] "the curriculum of life") is the most comprehensive record that a person might submit of his education, work experience, academic and professional achievements, and publications. It is the full and complete statement of a person's job qualifications, of which a résumé ([[French]] "a summary") is usually a summary.

== ''Curriculum vitae'' v. résumé ==
A ''curriculum vitae'' differs from the much shorter [[résumé]] in several key respects:
# It usually leads with a person's education, while a résumé leads with work experience.
# It lists a person's publications, while a résumé, if it mentions published work at all, simply states that a list of publications is available if someone requests it.

== Which should one submit? ==
A job applicant usually submits a ''curriculum vitae'' when seeking admission to a postgraduate professional educational program or an appointment to the faculty of an institution of higher education. For most other job applications, a résumé will suffice.
