Full professors at New Jersey’s college and universities made $127,696 on average in 2015-16, according to new data released by the Chronicle of Higher Education.
Full professors are a minority of the teaching staff at many colleges, and the database also includes average wages for associate professors, assistant professors, instructors, lecturers and unranked faculty, who all make substantially less money.
The average salary figures were compiled by the Chronicle of Higher Education for a database of more than 4,500 institutions. The data, released Wednesday, comes from information schools submitted to the U.S. Department of Education.
