Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education Reviews
What is it like working as an Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education?
October 2023
Frustrating and not inspring.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in Lafayette:
Pros: Connecting with students, time freedom
Cons: Passive leadership, slow growth ability
March 2023
Making a Strong Impact on Lives, But the Work-Life Balance Is Not Good.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in Los Angeles:
Pros: I enjoy teaching students new concepts/skills and preparing them for successful careers. The students are great to work with and the vast majority are motivated and not entitled. I like working with colleagues within my department and in other departments on campus.
Cons: Teaching a 4-4 while trying to maintain a scholarly agenda and doing administrative work. It doesn't allow for much of a work-life balance during the course of a semester. However, having the time off in the summer is fantastic and much more than I ever had in private industry. Of course, I'm not contracted or paid for the work I do in the summer.
September 2022
Leave Brazil.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in campo grande:
Brazil is a horrible place for University Professors/Researchers, extremely underpaid and unappreciated. There are too many racial and social quotas (more than 75% of the spots) for students to enter the university and the professors are pressured into passing them, the research has almost no funding and the scholarships are extremely low, driving away the best professionals because of the low pay. TLDR: low level students (forced by the government), low pay, low to no funding for research and a ton of burocracy for professors to do (administrative work, I really mean A LOT of it).
February 2022
Working as an Associate Professor with 17+ exp.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in New Delhi:

February 2022
No further growth in career especially in nursing profession.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in Ludhiana:
Pros: Nothing all is there corruption..
Cons: Safe environment
October 2021
Rewarding teaching, vastly underfunded research, somewhat disfuncational administration and governance.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in Greenville:
Pros: Teaching students, many of whom are enthusiastic first generation and/or minority students.
Cons: The endless administrative burden, some of which is pointless, some of which should be handled by administration. Administration has ever changing expectations. Administration fails to guide the institution in productive ways, if fails to =advocate effectively for students, staff, and faculty. It is lousy at fundraising. Research funding is all but non-existent compared to years ago at ECU and compared to comparable institutions.
May 2021
Challenging and exciting career opportunity.
Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education in Grahamstown:
Pros: Reputable, human-centred institution
Cons: Extremely high expectations
