Attracting and retaining highly qualified faculty is essential to
maintaining productivity at institutions of higher education.
Colleges and universities are at a critical juncture in their
history as they attempt to achieve their teaching and research
goals. This volume examines some of the most pressing employment
and compensation issues confronting academic administrators.
Contributors discuss topics such as: ageing of faculty, changing
economic conditions and shifts in faculty employment patterns,
rapid increases in health care costs and trends in retiree health
insurance, and adoption of phased and early retirement programs.
The volume also includes a series of case studies on how individual
universities are confronting these challenges. Institutions in
these case studies include: Syracuse University, the University of
North Carolina, the University of California, institutions in the
Association of New American Colleges, and other colleges and
universities included in several surveys and research projects.
This timely volume will appeal to academic administrators at
colleges and universities in the US and internationally as they
face the common challenges of rising employment costs, faculty
aging and global competition. Researchers interested in the future
of higher education, economics, and the academic labor market in
general will find this a valuable addition to their library.
