111,802 open positions · Updated daily
Academic roles are more dynamic than ever as universities expand online programs and interdisciplinary research centers. The 7,541 openings include positions in STEM, social sciences, and emerging fields like bioinformatics and educational technology. Funding from federal grants, private foundations, and industry partnerships pushes demand for faculty who can secure grants, publish in top journals, and design curriculum that meets accreditation standards.
Roles span from assistant professor to research scientist, instructional designer, and academic administrator. Faculty responsibilities include lecturing, supervising graduate students, writing grant proposals, and publishing peer‑reviewed articles. Instructional designers develop online modules using LMS like Canvas or Blackboard, while administrators manage program budgets, accreditation compliance, and faculty development.
Salary transparency gives academics the data needed to compare positions across institutions, negotiate tenure packages, and assess the value of non‑salary benefits such as sabbatical funding, research support, and health insurance. Knowing the typical starting salary for an assistant professor in STEM ($70k–$90k) versus a research scientist in a private lab ($85k–$110k) helps candidates choose roles that align with career goals and financial needs.
