In Europe (or at least in Sweden) you can't keep any of the money; your salary is the same with or without grants, for good or bad. In my university they stuff you up with an ungodly amount of teaching so you get desperate for external money to buy yourself out of it, not sure if it's the same elsewhere (if it isn't, please hire me).
- Fomite 4y agoIn the U.S. it varies by university, and even department. For some, it's hard to buy out teaching obligations, etc. One university I interviewed you would effectively get a raise if you brought in more than you needed to cover with your salary, because they were desperately trying to revive a fairly stagnant research culture. At my current institution, it comes back to me (mostly) as unallocated funding.
