Salary/Stipend Guidelines

CWRU uses the current year NIH NRSA scale as the minimum salary/stipend guidelines for all Postdoc Scholar and Postdoc Fellow positions.  These guidelines apply regardless of funding source.

Starting salary/stipend

The minimum yearly salary/stipend amount required for hiring a new postdoc is the current year 0 level amount listed on the NIH scale. It is strongly recommended that postdocs with prior experience receive a higher starting salary, based years of experience, listed on the NIH scale.
