The University of Missouri uses myVITA, a web-based faculty activity reporting system, to provide faculty members system-wide with an easy way to capture their research, teaching, service, scholarship and creative works in one place. It replaces the Faculty Accomplishment System (FAS), and is easier to use, more flexible and more powerful.
Data on externally funded grants and contracts feeds from the PeopleSoft Grants Module to MyVita as part of nightly processing. Internally funded grants such as PRIME and Research Council funding, do not feed into MyVita and must be entered manually by the faculty member. For more information on how to understand the MyVita grants portal, please visit: https://it-training.missouri.edu/myVITA/GettingStartedWithGrants.pdf.
If you or the faculty you support have questions about MyVita, you can email the MyVita team (ummyvita@umsystem.edu), or reach out to OSPA (muresearchospa@missouri.edu) with grant specific questions.
