Median salaries for associate professors (pre-tenure) range from $87,718 to $152,220. For tenured professors, the median range is between $102,622 and $198,519. A faculty diversity survey released by the university in early April showed incremental progress in hiring female faculty members: 27 percent of Harvard faculty are now women, compared to about 40 percent of tenure-track faculty. Those numbers have risen from 19 and 35 percent, respectively, since 2004, and administrators say they remain committed to further increasing faculty diversity. 1 On the list, its graduates have a median starting salary of $146,900 and mid-career earnings (with a median of 15 years of experience) of $176,200. In second place: Harvard Law School, with a starting salary of $125,400 and a mid-career salary of $201,400. Overall, Harvard has the fourth highest average salary for tenured professors of all universities in the dataset at $244,300, surpassed only by Columbia, Stanford and Princeton. Harvard also ranks in compensation for its tenure-track faculty. University associate professors earn the seventh highest average salary at $144,600, and assistant professors receive an average salary of $134,600, an amount only surpassed by Stanford among colleges studied. Moreover, her $400,000 salary would have reflected not only her classroom work, but also her reputation, her contributions to Harvard as a researcher, and her many years at university. Year-round teachers are paid for 12 months (with vacation days, such as a regular job). Professors of the academic year are paid for 9 or 10 months (depending on the school). They get (supposedly) all the vacations that students take care of, like Thanksgiving, Winter Break, Spring Break, and Summer.

Unless you`re attending college on a very unusual grading scale, your GPA of 2.7 puts you in the bottom half of your class, probably in the bottom quartile. Are there law schools that allow someone to have your number? Yes. But here are three that are worth thinking about. First, law professor is a career with a high average and low variance. Most tenure apprenticeships are good jobs. Second, given the small variance over time, the relative advantages of a law professor are greatest at the beginning and end of his or her career. At $223,427 per year, Columbia professors earn the second highest salary. Columbia has a total enrollment of 30,454 students and employs 4,205 faculty members. The cost of participation in Columbia is $59,430 per year. Warren earned more than $400,000 for his work as a professor at Harvard Law School in 2010 and 2011. During those two years, she taught two classes, not one. She also left Harvard in the 2010-2011 academic year to advise the government.

The survey, conducted by the American Association of University Professors, collects salary data on position and gender from 1,093 colleges and universities. The survey includes information on 1,019 Harvard tenured professors, 144 associate professors, 217 assistant professors and 149 „instructors,“ likely referring to specific non-core faculties such as lecturers, preceptors or fellows“ in their tabulations, according to Inside Higher Ed, which compiled the AAUP data. Faculty salaries may vary depending on the school and whether the university or college is public or private. Professors at Ivy League universities and colleges hold some of the most prestigious jobs in the country. So it`s no surprise that Ivy League faculty are paid handsomely for their contributions to education. Other reported university administrators who earned more than $500,000 in total salary and benefits in 2018 include President Lawrence S. Bacow, who began his term on July 1, 2018 and earned $570,072; Thomas J. Hollister, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Robert W. Iuliano, Senior Vice-President and General Counsel; Katie Lapp, Executive Vice-President; former Vice-President of Alumni Affairs and Development, Tamara Elliott Rogers; Vice-President and Chief Information Officer Anne H. Margules; George Daley, Dean of Harvard Medical School; and Dean of Harvard Business School, Nitin Nohria. The university`s two highest-paid faculty members, Michael L.

Tushman, a professor at the Baker Foundation, and Carliss Y. Baldwin, a white professor of business administration, taught at Harvard Business School and earned more than $1.5 million, which included a faculty salary, an early retirement plan, and insurance benefits for each of them.
