• Ohio University’s average faculty salary by rank and discipline is higher in many instances compared to averages for Ohio public institutions and averages for “research universities – high research activity.”
• 95% of Ohio University’s Group I tenure-track faculty continued from 2016-17 to 2017-18. Twenty-five new Group I faculty were hired in 2017-18, while 36 Group I faculty from 2016-17 left the university or changed their status (retired, resigned, moved to administration). This faculty retention rate is similar to that of previous years.
Office of Institutional Research
2017-18 Ohio University Faculty Salary & Compensation Study
Ohio University’s Office of Institutional Research participates in the annual
American Association of University Professors (AAUP) National Faculty Salary Study.
Academic-year base compensation of full-time Group I faculty, including chairs and
directors, are reported for each of Ohio University’s campuses. Academic administrators
other than chairs and directors, professional school faculty (Osteopathic Medicine), and
part-time faculty are excluded, according to AAUP salary study guidelines. Ohio
University’s “early retired” faculty are part-time and are not included.
The purpose of this report is to describe how faculty compensation at Ohio
University compares to different groups of universities and to help explain some of the
variables that influence those compensations.
National Peer Comparisons of Average Salaries and Compensation
Table 1 and Figure 1 show Ohio University average faculty salaries compared with
the average faculty salaries of the university’s ten peer institutions. Salaries are rounded to
the nearest hundred as reported in Academe and The Chronicle of Higher Education. Ohio
University ranks tenth for full professors, ($10,200 below the next highest rank), eighth for
associate professors, ($3,300 below the next highest rank), eighth for assistant professors,
($100 below the next highest rank), and sixth for all ranks, ($1,200 below the next highest
rank). Table 2 and Figure 2 show Ohio University average faculty compensation compared
with the average faculty compensation of the university’s peer institutions. Compensation
is rounded to the nearest hundred as reported in Academe and The Chronicle of Higher
Education. Ohio University ranks tenth for full professors, ($8,700 below the next highest
rank), eighth for associate professors, ($1,500 below the next highest rank), sixth for
Office of Institutional Research
assistant professors ($4,800 below the next highest rank), and sixth for all ranks ($1,500
below the next highest rank). Table 3 shows headcounts of Ohio University’s faculty and
the ten peer institutions’, as reported to AAUP. Some of the peers include non-tenure-
track full-time faculty.
Aggregated Average Salary and Compensation Comparisons in Ohio
Each year, Ohio University participates in comparative faculty salary studies,
comparing its full-time Group I faculty with full-time faculty at other universities. AAUP
collects aggregated faculty salary and benefits data for current and continuing (from the
previous year) faculty; salaries are broken down by rank.
Table 4 and Figure 3 show Ohio University average faculty salaries compared with
the average faculty salaries for public universities in Ohio. Table 4 consists of four pages
and shows the average faculty salary, broken down by faculty rank and institution for the
public universities in Ohio over the last seven years. The ordinal ranking of each
university is given for each year. In 2017-18, Ohio University is ranked eighth for
professors (same as in 2016-17); seventh for associate professors (down from sixth in
2016-17); fifth for assistant professors (down from fourth in 2016-17); and second for all
ranks combined (same as in 2016-17). In 2017-18, Ohio University’s average faculty
salary is $1,300 below the next highest rank for professors, $600 below the next highest
rank for associate professors, $1,600 below the next highest rank for assistant professors,
and $25,700 below the next highest rank for all ranks combined.
The numbers of faculty at each rank are given in Table 5. Ohio University has one
of the highest percentages of associate professors. Most of the other public universities in
Ohio make use of instructor or lecturer ranks. Ohio University, Ohio State University,
Office of Institutional Research
Kent State University, and Cleveland State University make little use of these ranks.
Many institutions submitted faculty salary data for instructors and/or lecturers, which
suggests that non-tenure-track data may be included.
Table 6 and Figure 4 show Ohio University average faculty compensation
compared with the average faculty compensation for public universities in Ohio. Ohio
University ranks sixth for full professors, up from eighth in 2016-17 ($4,700 below the
next highest rank), fifth for associate professors, up from fifth in 2016-17 ($2,500 below
the next highest rank), fourth for assistant professors, same as in 2016-17 ($4,400 below
the next highest rank), and second for all ranks, same as in 2016-17 ($24,300 below the
next highest rank).
Table 7 and Figure 5 show the percent salary increases for continuing faculty at the
Professor, Associate Professor, and Assistant Professor ranks for the last three years.
Continuing faculty at Ohio University are faculty who were full-time Group I faculty in
2016-17 and continued as full-time Group I faculty in 2017-18. Ninety-five percent of
Ohio University’s faculty continued from 2016-17 to 2017-18. The 2016-17 to 2017-18
salary increase at Ohio University for Professors was 0.04%, 0.7% for Associate
Professors, and 0.4% for Assistant Professors. Continuing faculty salary increases includes
base salary pool increases and annual promotion increases, however, the base salary pool
increase for 2017 was 0%.
Table 8 and Figure 6 show Ohio University’s (all ranks combined) average faculty
salary indexed over the last seven years, compared to the academic year Consumer Price
Index (CPI) and national AAUP average faculty salary indexes. The continuing faculty
salary increase from Table 7 is also indexed. From 2016-17 to 2017-18, Ohio University’s
Office of Institutional Research
annual average salary and the continuing faculty average salary have increased higher than
the comparable national average.
Table 9 shows the continuing faculty salary increases by faculty rank for Ohio
University compared to public universities in Ohio and to the university’s peer institutions
as reported in Academe. An all ranks average for continuing faculty is not calculated in the
report by Academe. Compared to the Ohio public universities, Ohio University ranked
tenth in 2017-18 for professors, tenth for associate professors, and eleventh for assistant
professors. Compared to the peer institutions, Ohio University ranked eleventh in 2017-18
for professors, eleventh for associate professors, and eleventh for assistant professors.
Table 10 shows average fringe benefits for faculty. Ohio University ranks fourth in
the percent benefits of salaries compared to Ohio public universities, and ranks second
compared to the university’s peer institutions.
Average Salaries by Discipline
The institutional research office at Oklahoma State University collects national
aggregated faculty salary data for current faculty; salaries are broken down by rank and
discipline. Oklahoma State provides broad-based comparative analysis, such as “Research
University – High Research Activity” (new Carnegie classification) universities. CUPA-
HR similarly collects aggregated faculty salary data for current faculty; salaries are broken
down by rank and discipline. CUPA-HR provides selectable comparative analyses. Public
universities in Ohio were selected. Disciplines are identified by federal Classification of
Instructional Program (CIP) codes, which allows for hierarchical coding of academic
disciplines. Oklahoma State uses six-digit CIP codes that match most closely with Ohio
University’s academic departments. CUPA-HR uses four-digit CIP codes that required
Office of Institutional Research
some of Ohio University’s departments to be combined (African American Studies and
Women’s Studies; Modern Languages and Linguistics; Journalism and Visual
Communication; Sports Administration and Recreation & Sport Pedagogy). CUPA-HR
did not provide a CIP code for Aviation, so it is not included.
Differences in salaries among academic disciplines exist at all universities. A study
done by Cornell University provides evidence that these differences are due to three
factors: quality of different departments’ faculty; market conditions for disciplines such as
business and engineering; and the presence/absence of collective bargaining agreements. It
is important to note that the strongest predictor of faculty salary at Ohio University, time
(years of service, years in rank, or years since highest degree), is not collected by any of
these faculty salary surveys and is not used as a variable affecting salary differences.
Table 11 shows faculty salaries by rank and discipline, comparing Ohio
University’s salaries with CUPA-HR-reported salaries for public universities in Ohio.
Only the disciplines reported by Ohio University are shown. Forty-eight disciplines were
reported to CUPA; 22 of these had salaries reported for both Ohio University and the state-
wide comparison group for each academic rank. At the professor rank, 14 of Ohio
University’s average salaries were higher than the state-wide average salaries. At the
associate professor rank, 15 of Ohio University’s average salaries were higher than the
state-wide average salaries. At the assistant professor rank, 14 of Ohio University’s
average salaries were higher than the state-wide average salaries. Table 12 shows the
numbers of faculty reported in each discipline by rank by Ohio University and by the state-
wide comparison universities. Nearly all of Ohio University’s disciplines and ranks are
represented by the disciplines in the state-wide comparison group. Some of the salaries by
Office of Institutional Research
rank and discipline for the comparison group are not reported by CUPA because of small
numbers of faculty or matching institutions.
Table 13 shows faculty salaries by rank and discipline, comparing Ohio
University’s salaries with High Research Activity - Research Universities participating in
Oklahoma State’s salary study. Only the disciplines reported by Ohio University are
shown. Fifty-three disciplines were reported to Oklahoma State; all of these had salaries
reported for both Ohio University and the High Research Activity comparison group.
Thirteen cells (out of 424) did not have a discipline and rank match. At the professor rank,
26 (out of 50 actual matches) of Ohio University’s average salaries were higher than the
High Research Activity average salaries. At the associate professor rank, 37 (out of 52
actual matches) of Ohio University’s average salaries were higher than the High Research
Activity average salaries. At the assistant professor rank, 30 (out of 44 actual matches) of
Ohio University’s average salaries were higher than the High Research Activity average
salaries. For all ranks combined, 42 of Ohio University’s average salaries were higher than
the High Research Activity average salaries. Table 14 shows the numbers of faculty
reported in each discipline by rank by Ohio University and by the High Research Activity -
Research universities.
Tracking Faculty from 2016-2017 to 2017-2018
Tables 15, 16, and 17 show the headcounts, gross salary amounts, and average
salary amounts, tracking full-time Group I faculty from 2016-17 to 2017-18. Table 15
shows the numbers of continuing faculty, numbers of promoted faculty, numbers of new
faculty in 2017-18, and the numbers of faculty who left Group I status or Ohio University
and their reason. Table 18 shows faculty retention rates at Ohio University over time and
Office of Institutional Research
the reasons why they are no longer at the university. The overall retention rate for faculty
for 2017-18 is 95%. This percentage is similar to previous years’ rates (97% in 2016-17,
91% in 2015-16, 94% in 2014-15, 93% in 2013-14, and 92% in 2012-13 and 2011-12).
