Abstract

The effect of business accreditation on academic salaries is a subject of some importance to both higher education administration and faculty. The present study empirically assessed two questions central to the issue of professional accreditation: (a) Is there a salary differential between AACSB-accredited schools and schools that are not AACSB accredited? (b) Is the salary differential across disciplines greater at AACSB-accredited schools than at unaccredited schools? The findings suggest that AACSB accreditation positively affects both the magnitude of business school salaries and the cross-disciplinary salary differentials.
