nine0005 Britain by the Numbers – 16: University salaries
The Times Higher Education (THE) weekly published detailed information on salaries at 128 UK universities (data for the 2006-2007 academic year from the Higher Education Statistics Agency). For all categories of employees (including rectors). First – the most interesting average numbers . The industry average salary (per annum) for teachers and researchers (full-time) in all categories is £41,128. Compared to the 2004-2005 school year (£36,535) this is an increase of 12.5%. nine0062 professors earn more than members of parliament (MPs – £61,820, although they still receive very generous additional payments) and lawyers (solicitors – £55,000) civil servants – £23,000). It should be borne in mind, however, that in universities more people than in some of the professions mentioned are near the upper limits of their salaries (the same professors are usually very respectable people. But respectable lawyers of the highest qualification receive much more). nine0005 The conclusion is this: after a long period when the salaries of British universities increased more slowly than in many other industries (and countries!), the situation has changed. Which, by the way, did not happen by itself: a couple of years ago, there was a serious nationwide confrontation between university trade unions and employers about the size of the salary increase. However, the average salaries are reminiscent of the notorious average temperature in a hospital. What is interesting about the published data: it gives a detailed breakdown for specific universities. It is curious that the “ranking” of universities by the average salary (for all categories of employees) differs significantly from the generally accepted ranking, which arranges universities in accordance with the success in their educational and scientific activities. I will give a few examples (I will refer to the rating from the Sunday Times). nine0006  At the top of the list are such creative universities as Royal College of Music (3rd place), Royal Academy of Music (4th place), Royal College of Arts (7th place).  Despite the fact that professors there are not paid that much (£55,665). But it pays a lot (£61,284) to “other grades” employees – who seem to be a significant category there (unlike other universities, where there are very few of them).  And Bournemouth University , frankly, does not shine: 120th place (average – £ 37,602, for professors £ 58,934, for teachers – £ 34,399, for researchers – £ 21,736; data on a group of senior teachers and s. .s for some reason not given).  It would be interesting to know real incomes of the rectors of Russian universities (the same Sadovnichy), but I think that this secret is more secret than many state ones …
Rectors’ average salary is therefore £177,844 (including benefits) and up 8%. These salaries are many times higher than other leaders, say, vice-rectors, receive. When compared to the incomes of heads of large structures in the public sector, rectors earn quite well (for example, heads of “primary care trusts”, serving more than a million people, receive an average of £ 144,000). However, in the private sector CEOs of large structures earn more on average (£214,000 – this is without any remuneration packages, which can be very high). nine0006 Britain in numbers

Things came to the real threat of a long strike during the summer exams, which threatened a significant part of the graduates to be left without diplomas. In the end, a compromise was found. Although employers still argue that the agreed level of salary increases (together with increased payments to pension funds) will lead many universities to a financial crisis in the coming years. nine0006
