Hi guys.. In MMU a lecturer who has master's by research (engineering) can earn rm4.1k. Senior lecturers can earn up to 6.5k and associate professors almost 10k. How about in public University? and in universities in Singapore? Anyone knows?

Information needed to decide possible future career path ..

deja vu. have you posted this before?

something similar yes .. I asked about MMU FOSEE lecturers yesterday..

my a.p only use persona

PhD holders automatically get senior lecturer status when they start. but i thought senior lecturers earn more than 6.5k.. dunno la

nah

LKW Senior lectures around 7-8k

Depend on their qualitifaction if got PHD better paid

IPTA. I think with PhD u start at 8k total... as in, allowances all lumped in already la

im not sure about other universities, but in MMU even if you have pHD no auto seniority.. you've to have enough publication and you'll have to go through selection and interview and stuffs.. -from reliable source, lecturer himself-

government university pay so high? higher than private? anyone knows pay for phd holders in private university? my lecturer told me in MMU after get PHD few hundreds increment only.. im not convinced but.....

but MMU is an IPTS. It was part of the governments response to the Uni rankings a few years back when none of the malaysian unis were in the world top 200.

They started this scheme for the IPTAs where all lecturers had to be moving towards a PhD and new lecturers with PhD automatically get Senior Lecturer position.

low profile.. associate proff higher pay than dean.. dean's pay not so much, he gets his basic pay + allowance for becoming dean.. allowance like rm1k++.. so in MMU, if he's a senior lecturer, then 6.5k+1K++=7.5k++... associate proff almost 10k.. but normally dean is also associate professor.. or professor

ur lecturer including allowances or not?

base pay lower than 8k la.. but i dunno how much

thats nice to hear.. no wonder lots of people running to IPTA. in IPTA go retirement age for lecturers?

IPTA not much allowance.. for normal lecturers i think none, or none that I am aware of. You seem to know alot about IPTA, you from IPTA?

any estimation on new lecturer with masters?

ask firedauz, he's a lecturer

i lol at ur statement.. people dun hv to drive expensive car to justify their salary

i almost 5k, still driving my old '99 proton

Nope! my dad is a.p., he tried to convince me to do my PhD and become a lecturer. So he gave me all those figures la haha

After going through my masters, I never wanna do research again.

But then again, each person is different. It might suit you perfectly.
Forget about the pay first and decide whether you would enjoy it. If you think you will, you have 6 years of being a student ahead of you. the "gaji" you mentioned should just consider allowance

i m doing part time in few unis / colleges, teaching architectural design / construction. pay ranges fr rm 150 - 250 / hour for 2 - 4 hrs per week per uni..... n i hv a 9 yrs exp in construction industry, i m a full time construction manager in a MNC in KL.

Nowdays many wannabe lecturer think teaching make sounds easy as ABC...some fresh lecturers has low quality in terms of his teaching skill, knowledge and attitude towards job ,... came in late for class, came in as they wish. so care free and fuked with his own sweet time during the class and so on plus hes also a racist too !!
what happend !!!
This happened to me back in the days when I was study in SEGi Subang Jaya.

Naaah http://www2.tganu.uitm.edu.my/ilqam/dokumen/FM/Gaji.pdf

RM3.5k & above for certain IPTAs for non-Phd.

After getting Phd title, maybe go up to RM4k-5k.

Of course higher in Singapore U.

I suggest you go there, do your PhD as well.

Depends on your qualification, you can get as high as rm200 per hour (3 hours per week = rm600 per week, one month = rm2.4k as part time)

Now it is very difficult to apply for post of junior lecturer with only master degree

Junior lecturer (DS45) RM4.5k (all in) Min req = Master degree.

Senoir lecturer (DS51) RM6.5k (all in) Must have PhD.

check it out in swinburne kuching, lol

That's pretty naise....No more allowance isn't it? that's the salary you'll get..
but i think salary for lecturers in public uni can achieve that figure when all the allowance comes in..

You did your masters? Good, exactly the kind of person I need advice from. Do you think it is possible for me to finish an engineering masters by research in less than 2 years? You're suggesting exactly what Im thinking. Im 22+ now, I dunno why im pressuring myself to work.. Maybe I should continue my masters and treat the 'gaji' as allowance.. That said, isit possible to work in a MNC and at the same time do masters by research from a university as part time?

I was saddened by the fact that my current university does not accept tutor applicants anymore. Tutor can earn 2.6k, and requires an undergraduate degree.. They only accept GRA (2k salary) from now onwards..

remember good paid job never wait for workers. worker wait for them. so it your luck to get a good pay job.

either way if you 22+ now, master took around 3 years+. If you grad around 25 + work expriences - your salary wise around 5k+ shouldn't be a problem. unless you got attitude problem

masters degree cant become lecturers at all nowadays. u'll only become a tutor.

DS45 requires a PhD. DS51 requires a substantial amount of research, publication and involvement in the industry.

Yes it is possible, depends on how hardworking you are.

What about the assistant lecturer post?

Research funds, thats the jackpot yo.

apply to other university laaa. aiseh.

the problem with tutor posts is that in order to offer them, the university must commit to support the tutor to do his PhD within 5 years of entry. which means if the university doesnt have a budget to support u for the next 5 years, they shouldnt offer a place to u, regardless how much they need u at that particular moment.

what u can do is to apply to a different university which has more budget allocations.

assistant lecturer post is now known as tutor.

college lecturer is 1 of easier way to get in

Hi, i think he is refering to MMU. In MMU, tutor post is now known as assistant lecturer..the other way round, haha

College lecturer only needs master and will be earning way lower than university lecturer right? ANyone got info?
