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.

ISBN 1-57440-143-2

The study looks closely at higher education faculty compensation and earnings from 
salary, and supplementary income from research institutes, writing, public speaking, and 
consulting.  It also covers faculty satisfaction with compensation, job security, health and 
retirement benefits, information technology and work environment and relations with 
students and colleagues, among other job characteristics.  The report also probes faculty 
attitudes towards advancement and discrimination in academia, querying them on the 
impact of prejudice related to gender, ethnicity, social class, age, religion, political 
conviction and other factors. 

Data is presented in the aggregate and for 12 criteria including academic field, size of 
college, type of college, academic title and other factors. The study is based on a 
probability sample of all full time faculty in North America.
