Faculty Profile

UTA uses Digital Measures for faculty academic profiles. The profile includes contact information, academic accomplishments, and teaching assignments for the semester. New faculty must create their profile and upload course syllabi in Digital Measures. Contact your hiring department for more details.

Insurance Coverage

You must make your insurance elections online in MY UT Benefits during your Initial Benefits Enrollment period, which is the first 31 calendar days of employment. If you do not make elections and you are a full-time employee, you will default to the Basic Coverage only. If you are a part-time employee, you will forfeit insurance coverage altogether if elections are not made.

When you complete the enrollment you will need the required Documentation for Eligible Dependents. For information on benefits, see the Office of Talent, Culture, and Engagement Benefits page.

Retirement Option

Review the Retirement Options. You are automatically enrolled in TRS. If you are eligible for and choose Optional Retirement Program (ORP), then submit enrollment forms within 90 calendar days of employment.

Keys

If you need a physical key to access assigned facilities, your supervisor will process a key request form online to request your key. The online form is located here: https://mavsuta.sharepoint.com/sites/keys/SitePages/Home.aspx Normally there is a twenty-four hour turn around. Only the employee whose name appears on the request will be allowed to sign for the key(s). Remember to take your valid university identification card or driver's license to pick up key(s) at Key Control Service located in the J.D. Wetsel Building, Suite 100 (view map).

If you have questions, please contact Key Control Services at keyrequest@uta.edu or 817-272-2209.
