Do professors make more at more higher ranked universities?

<p>Just curious. Given that the comparison is made between professors with the same years of experience in the university but at different universities. I think their base salary is relatively the same. But do the ones at higher ranked universities make more because they get more funding?</p>

<p>some 1 told me that professors at the MIT give you the key and you must dive into the subject and figure out things.
so I think it’s about the student more than the prof.</p>

<p>Yes, the higher ranking universities, in general, pay better. This includes base pay.</p>
