Hi Brian,
I'm also interested in hearing more about this. I very much wish that AACSB would have more granular data on entrepreneurship professors with emphasis on those of us who run centers. At my school, I am the only entrepreneurship guy in town, and the school uses the AACSB salary study as a target to set salaries. I do get a 2-course annual release to run the center, which puts me at the same teaching load as other "administrators" - i.e., chairs. However, I am very careful to define my role as primarily academic, which is to say that I primarily exist to serve students. I work very closely with the SBDC to make sure that small business clients are served and I serve a select few myself. With all that said, the only variable that I think you are missing in your list above is AACSB/non-AACSB schools.
Thanks,
Scott

Subject: Surveying Entrepreneurship Center Salaries
Hi folks,
I'm trying to put together 2021 budgets for the entrepreneurship center I run at the University of Miami. I was wondering if there have been any surveys done on wages / budgets of university entrepreneurship centers. Any guidance on where to look would be greatly appreciated. OR if this hasn't been done before, I'm happy to kickoff a survey, would just want to know what data points you would all like to know about.
So far the biggest variables I've seen that impact wages are:
- Public vs private institution
- Grant funded vs permanent budget
- Inside academic division (usually b-schools) or outside
- Open to broader community or exclusive to school
- Specific mission oriented
- Economic development goals
- Volume of students/clients per year
- size of staff
What other data points would be useful to compile?
Thanks
Brian
