我国高校教师薪酬水平的历史变迁及其启示

The Historical Evolution and Enlightenment of Teachers' Salary Level in Chinese Colleges and Universities

近百年来,我国高校教师薪酬水平的历史变迁可分为4个阶段。在上世纪二三十年代,高校教师的薪酬处于最高水平,然后逐步下降,在改革开放前后达到最低水平,此后又逐步提高。但是与其他知识密集型行业职工相比,目前高校教师的薪酬水平仍然偏低。可见高校教师薪酬水平的高低并不完全取决于当时的经济发展水平,而是取决于政府和社会的重视程度。高校师资水平及其国际地位的提高离不开高水平薪酬体系的支撑,因此,要保持其薪酬水平在社会中的领先地位。
