This is not my experience (close friend in a flyover state makes 55k), so I googled and found this website:
https://postdocsalaries.com/results https://postdocsalaries.com/results
55k looks to be well within the normal range of American postdoc salaries.
- vulpescana 2y agoThe 50-55k range is for PhD students, not postdocs. PhDs in Europe often get a much higher pay than in America.
- zipy124 2y agoYou've looked at postdoc salaries, not PhD salaries. very different. For example in the UK a PhD will get somewhere aroun £19-21k a year, whilst a postdoc will get anywhere from £37-45k a year......
