Faculty Success FAQs

Watermark Faculty Success (formerly Digital Measures, aka Activity Insight) is an online software tool designed to help faculty members collect, organize, and display their data for the purposes of annual reviews, promotion and tenure, and much more. 

Your Login ID to Faculty Success is your University Computing ID (UCID). This is the same Login ID and password you use for Highlander Pipeline. The URL is https://www.digitalmeasures.com/login/njit/faculty If you have problems logging in, e‐mail facultyreport@njit.edu.

Faculty Success is not organized by a particular year, it is a continuing log of activities allowing a faculty member to enter "activities" (e.g. journal articles, grant submissions, service on a committee) as they occur during an academic year and not have to enter a year's worth of activities all at once. Entries made previously can be updated (e.g. a journal article with the status "Submitted" later updated to status "Published"). Information for a particular annual report is extracted by date, i.e. activities that occurred between 9/1/2018‐8/31/2019 cover an annual report for one year, and activities that occur between 9/1/2019‐8/31/2020 are covered in the following year's annual report. Note activities entered that cross multiple academic years will be reflected in multiple annual reports. Entering dates correctly is important to the process.

From the Left‐Hand Menu, Reports Column, select the Annual Faculty report and run it for the period September 1, 2020 ‐ August 31, 2021. The academic year starts with the fall semester and includes the following spring and summer terms. This will print most of the information you have entered.

Intellectual contributions and sponsored research involving multiple NJIT faculty are handled in a similar manner. The first faculty member entering an activity has the opportunity to add additional authors, presenters, investigators, etc. to the Activity Insight entry. When adding the second individual you can select the individual's name from a drop‐down list of NJIT faculty. When this is done, the activity entry will also be included as part of the second person's list of activities. The second person's activity list will clearly indicate the activity was entered by the first person. Only the first person entering the activity can make edits and corrections to the activity. If the second person were to see an error or something needing correction, s/he should contact the first person that originally entered the activity. Note non‐NJIT faculty can also be added as authors, presenters, investigators, etc.

Send an e‐mail to facultyreport@njit.edu and explain what is missing. Your request will be checked against the official records for the course and anything that is missing will be added. If the missing course is an advising course it will not be listed under Schedule Teaching. The advisement courses are not loaded automatically. If you would like to add them, you can add them manually to the Academic Advising under the Teaching section.

If you notice a record on your Intellectual Contribution screen that you did not enter and cannot edit, it means the record was added by another user, and you have been included as a co-author. These records will display a Lock icon in the summary table, indicating that you are a linked collaborator but not the owner.

To identify the primary record owner:

1. Use the Select Columns feature in the summary table.
2. Search for and select the "Record Owner" column.
3. Once added, the column will appear on the far right of the table, displaying the name of the record owner.

The record owner or a user with the appropriate Manage Data permissions can make modifications through their account.

If you need changes to the record or wish to remove yourself as a collaborator, you can:

1. Contact the record owner directly to request the necessary updates.
2. Email facultyreport@njit.edu with the details of your request, and we will reach out to the author on your behalf.
