| Comment | it's public info, as most UK universities follow the same pay scales.
a reader - Grade 9 - would get £60k, and then a newly-appointed professor would generally start on £70-80k
once a professor has a track record of winning large grants, then their salary is basically up for negotiation - £100-120k would be the average, but superstar profs can basically name their price
bear in mind that in any technical field this is absolute peanuts compared to what they would make in the private sector, and most make the majority of their income out of directorships and patents. |
