Visiting Faculty

When hiring visiting instructors, the Summer Chair should contact the Office of Summer and Special Academic Programs and together they will establish an appropriate wage for that individual. Although listed as a lecturer in the University HR and payroll system, a visiting faculty member will be paid according to the rank held at their home institution. At no time will the wage of a visiting faculty member exceed the summer salary for a full professor.
