Following the announcement by Chancellor Khosla of the 2024-2025 UC salary program on May 1, 2024, I am pleased to share the details of the academic salary program for academic appointees in 2024-2025.
The adjustment to the salary scales will be effective October 1, 2024 for policy-covered faculty and July 1, 2024 for other policy-covered academic appointees as noted below. Scale and range increases are contingent on the outcome of the State budget allocation.
July 1, 2024 Adjustments
Salary scales for non-faculty, non-represented academics will be increased by 4.2%. This includes Academic Administrators, Academic Coordinators, Continuing Educators, and non-represented appointees in the Librarian, Professional Research, Project Scientist, and Specialist series. The Standard Table of Pay rates will also be adjusted by 4.2%. Above Scale salaries and Off-Scale salary components for non-faculty, non-represented academics will be increased by 4.2%.
Eligible full-time Faculty Administrators will receive a 4.2% merit-based increase.
The July 1 effective dates apply to academics paid on the monthly (MO) pay schedule. Increases for academics paid bi-weekly (BW), will be effective July 7, 2024, the first pay period following July 1.
October 1 Adjustments:
Professorial and Teaching Professor (L(P)SOE series) scales, Above Scale salaries and Off-Scale salary components will be increased by 4.2%.
Exclusions:
Appointees with by-agreement salaries, including visiting titles, are not eligible for the salary increase. Preuss teachers and counselors whose salaries are set per a Unit 18 contract side-letter are not eligible for the general range adjustment. Administrative stipends will not be adjusted.
Participants in the Health Sciences Compensation Plan (HSCP) and General Campus Compensation Plan (GCCP) are not eligible for mid-year salary increases. The covered compensation components (X and X’ for HSCP; scale rate, off-scale and/or above scale for GCCP) will be increased by 4.2% and the negotiated salary component will be reduced by the same dollar amount to maintain the approved Total Negotiated Salary amount for the 2024-2025 academic year.
Other Notes:
All scale rates, off-scale components, and above scale salaries are subject to rounding so exact percentages may differ.
The regular peer-review advancement process for academic appointees will continue per academic personnel policy.
The changes to UCPath will be coordinated by Academic Compensation. School Dean’s Office and Department staff will be expected to review resulting payroll entries and alert Academic Compensation if problems are detected.
I hope this information is helpful. Our goal is to ensure implementation of this salary increase in the most efficient and consistent manner possible. If you have questions regarding the 2024-2025 salary program, please direct them to academicpersonnel@ucsd.edu.
