How much does a college teacher make per year?

Question

I was offered a job as a higher education/college/FE college teacher full time. What salary can I expect?

Answer 1

It depends on where the college is and if you are going to be a tenured prof or not.  It also depends on whether you have a Masters or a PhD.  The university I attend is in rural Pennsylvania and one of my profs (a tenured Brit Lit prof) who has been there for probably 5-7 years makes about $60,000/year.  It will probably be more if you are in a big city.  But it could be less if you are not a PhD.  Since you are just starting, you may not make that much since she has more experience, but that's a ballpark figure

Answer 2

My aunt is a part time college professor, and she makes about 42.00 an hour starting, but I'm not sure for a full time position.

I did a search and the average salary for a full time college professor a year is $74,012.  Your pay can be dramatically affected by compensable factors such as employer size, industry, employee credentials, years of experience and others.
