Salary Ranges

Salary ranges are used as guidelines in determining individual salaries. Each applicant’s education and previous work experience are taken into account when determining salary.

The University uses available market data to determine salary ranges that reflect the market rate for positions. These ranges are reviewed annually and are adjusted accordingly.

New employees are generally offered starting salaries between the minimum and midpoint of the range. Starting salaries are based on a number of factors which include education, experience, internal equity and other requirements of the specific position.

When an employee transfer results in a grade change, the amount of salary adjustment will be determined by the department based on the employee's position in the salary range, and equity considerations relating to other employees in similar positions. In these cases, department managers should consult with Human Resources.

The University recognizes that to effectively recruit and retain key employees in certain professions, current market pressures may require starting salaries outside the established guidelines.

Salaries for Executive positions (grades 97,98,99) are established separately.
