How the Academic layout is built

What this skin actually changes, compared with the plain document every template starts from.

  • 1Serif throughout, and set a step smaller than the base at 13px, because an academic CV is expected to run long and density matters more than presence.
  • 2Headings drop out of capitals to 1.02rem sentence case over a thin 1px rule, so a CV with twelve sections does not shout twelve times.
  • 3The header is centred, the convention on submitted academic CVs.

Why it is built that wayEvery choice here is aimed at length. A publication list and a teaching record do not fit on one page and are not supposed to, so the skin optimises for a document read over several pages rather than scanned in one.

Who the Academic template is for

Best for: PhD, postdoc, lecturer and research CVs with publication lists. It is one of the 40 ATS-safe templates here — single column, no tables and no text boxes — so it is a safe default when the application goes through an employer's online portal.

When to choose something else

The small type and quiet headings make a one-page industry resume look underweight. For a move out of academia, Professional or Pivot present the same material with more attack.

Once the wording is done, run the finished document through our free ATS resume checker to score it against the job description you are targeting, or read the resume writing guides for section-by-section help.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Academic template different from the other 71?

Every choice here is aimed at length. A publication list and a teaching record do not fit on one page and are not supposed to, so the skin optimises for a document read over several pages rather than scanned in one.

Is the Academic template free?

Yes, entirely. Build your resume in it, preview it live and download the PDF without an account, a trial or a watermark. Nothing is held back behind a payment.

Is the Academic template ATS-friendly?

Yes. It is a single-column, table-free layout with conventional section headings, which is exactly what applicant tracking systems such as Workday, Greenhouse and iCIMS parse most reliably.

Should I use Academic or Chronicle?

Academic is the closest match in the library to Chronicle. Academic: Publication and research friendly, ideal for a long-form academic CV — best for phD, postdoc, lecturer and research CVs with publication lists. Chronicle: Long-form serif CV built to run over several pages without fatigue — best for academic CVs with teaching, grants and long publication lists. You can switch between the two at any point without retyping anything.

What file format do I get?

PDF, Word (.docx) or a JPG image — all three free, all downloaded instantly, none watermarked. PDF is the right default because it keeps your formatting identical on every device and parses reliably in applicant tracking systems; choose Word only when an employer specifically asks for it.
