Medical School Faculty Salaries 2010-2011

How much does the average medical school faculty make? The Association of American Medical Colleges recently released a publication titled, "Report on Medical School Faculty Salaries 2010-2011." This report is $409.00. I didn't purchase the report, so here's a summary from Modern Physician:

The average physician working as a clinical faculty member at a U.S. medical school made a total of $262,400 in the 2010-11 academic year—an increase of 2.9% over the previous year, according to a new report from the Association of American Medical Colleges.

Almost 59,000 U.S. physicians serve as clinical faculty members, according to the AAMC's Report on Medical School Faculty Salaries, 2010-11.

In comparison, the 1,145 physicians working as basic science faculty saw their compensation rise 2.7% to $150,600. The 12,928 nonphysicians who have a doctorate and work as clinical faculty saw their average compensation grow 2.2% to $123,400.
