(447e) Chemical Engineering Faculty Academic Salary Survey

Each US chemical engineering department listed at www.che.utexas.edu/che-faculty/ (157 total departments) was contacted by e-mail through the chair/head/director of the department and asked to fill out an Excel spreadsheet and e-mail it back. Instructions were to base all salaries on a 9-month contract basis for full time, tenured and tenure-track individuals in the professorial ranks, while the instructors could be tenure track or not. All monetary compensation including any salary enhancements for chaired or titled positions were to be included in the reported salaries. The results from each department were condensed to number of faculty, high and low salaries, and average salary at each rank. About 120 schools normally provide data.  Analysis and comparison of the results will be presented.
