The Survey of Higher Education Faculty

The Survey of Higher Education Faculty is a series of twelve reports based on a survey of 555 full time higher education faculty in the United States and Canada. An initial representative sample of 350 colleges was chosen from the more than 4,500 accredited colleges in the United States and Canada. Lists of faculty from these colleges were aggregated and randomly sampled. Studies in this series include reports on trends in research, teaching, tenure, faculty use of the academic library and other topics. Data is broken out by 12 criteria including academic rank, field of study, tenure status, age of faculty member, political opinions of the faculty member, size of college, type of college, USA or Canada and other factors.
