家园 美国生命科学领域的工资指南 刚收到一个e-mail，贴到这里，供各位参考。
As you know, you participated in our survey of income in the life
sciences earlier this year. Since you were a participant, we
e-mailed you some salary data earlier (covering income by job
level and by region. Here is the second in this informational
e-mail series.
Income of life scientists varies widely by metropolitan area.
The five highest-paying metropolitan areas are:
Wilmington, DE - $92,000
Middlesex-Essex Counties, MA - $90,698
Long Beach/South Bay, CA - $88,000
Westchester County, NY - $85,000
San Jose, CA - $85,000
The five lowest-paying metropolitan areas are:
Jacksonville, FL - $48,215
Tucson, AZ - $51,000
Austin, TX - $51,176
Virginia Beach/Norfolk, VA - $51,900
Portland, OR - $53,000
By general type of organization, life scientists in start-up
firms fare best ($80,500), followed closely by those in
publicly-held firms ($80,000). Far behind are those in
governmental organizations, privately-held firms, and nonprofit
organizations ($66,000, $64,000, and $63,983 respectively).
Income of life scientists varies more widely by specific industry
or service of the organization. The five highest-paying areas
are:
Consultant (independent) - $106,500
Pharmaceutical Manufacturing - $93,150
Consulting Firm - $90,000
Laboratory/Medical Instruments/Supplies Manufacturing - $85,000
Chemical Manufacturing - $84,000
The five lowest-paying types of employer are:
Primary School - $40,000
Secondary School - $45,400
University Hospital - $51,000
College/University (granting only 2-3 year degrees) - $51,823
College/University (granting only B.A./B.S. or B.A./B.S. and
M.A./M.S.) - $52,375 and $53,000 respectively
Health Care Facility - $53,000
Although the correlation is not strong, there is a tendency for
life scientists to make more in larger organizations and less in
smaller ones.
On the other hand, there is an almost-perfect correlation between
total years of professional experience and income of life
scientists, ranging from $34,000 for those with under one year of
experience to $103,000 for those with 30 years of experience or
more.
Income in the life sciences varies even more widely by level of
education. In descending order, the income of holders of the
highest paying doctorates are:
Medical Doctorate - $138,500
Dental Doctorate - $91,943
Veterinary Medicine Doctorate - $84,000
Pharmaceutical Doctorate - $82,688
Science/Engineering Doctorate - $74,700
Non-Science/Non-Engineering Doctorate - $71,500
Interestingly enough, almost all holders of these degrees PLUS
another doctorate made less than if they did not have a second
doctorate (the one exception is those who hold two
science/engineering doctorates). However, as shown in the
complete report, this is explainable as they have had tended to
have less experience since their highest-level degree.
Income is lowest for those life scientists with the following
levels of education:
Some college but no degree - $40,000
Two B.A./B.S. degrees - $44,400
A.A./A.S. degree - $46,500
Bachelor-level science/engineering degree - $48,600
Bachelor-level non-science/engineering degree - $50,606
Masters-level science/engineering degree - $53,346
Masters-level non-science/engineering degree - $60,000
家园 科学家不值钱啊 家园 Pharmaceutical和science博士有多大区别？ 家园 Pharmaceutical更专一些 大药厂的工资和福利都是不错的，这是Pharmaceutical博士毕业的主要就业地。
Science博士面更广，就业面也更广，但工资会低一些。
家园 谢谢啦，正在考虑转到pharmaceutical的可能性 家园 Pharmacy和Pharmaceuticals不一样。 家园 说的对 对此没有太多知识，感觉上Pharmacy是培养医院或药房药剂师的，而Pharmaceutical是以制药为主。不知到对不对？
- 复 说的对
家园 你说得很对， 在美国药剂师位Pharmacy Doctor，在药店工作，挣得算是多的，和你列得差不多。只是不知道你是否列的是平均工资？
我没有听说过有关pharmaceutical的博士学位，可能也是关于药剂师方面的。在pharmaceutical行业，大部分为自然科学和医学的人们，从化学，生物，药理药代，临床试验实验等，当然这是指研发人员。
不知说得对不对。
- 复 你说得很对，
家园 老乔好！我说的是药剂的博士学位（pharmaceutics?） 至于药剂师和Doctor pharmacy我还真没有考虑过，要是待遇这末好，可真有点动心了，呵呵。
以后说不定还要请教各位专业人士。
