Abstract

Purpose/objectives

Each year, American Dental Education Association (ADEA) collects data on U.S. dental school faculty demographics, compensation, and vacant and lost positions. One of the purposes of the reports associated with this project is to provide information to U.S. dental schools on national trends on dental school faculty. This report examines the landscape of faculty workforce at U.S.-accredited dental schools in 2021‒2022 and changes relative to the 2018‒2019 academic year. The information contained within this report includes faculty position information, new and separated faculty, open or vacant faculty positions, lost faculty positions, and faculty demographics.

Methods

The report analyzes data from the 2018‒2019 ADEA Survey of Dental School Faculty (representing an estimated 91% of the full-time and part-time faculty) and 2021‒2022 ADEA Dental School Faculty Salary and Demographic Census (an estimated 84% of the faculty).

Results

The analysis revealed that more than half of dental school faculty was in the south and northeast in 2021‒2022. Among responding schools, 85% of the faculty concentrated on teaching, research, and training in 2021‒2022, a proportion similar with 2018‒2019. One in five faculty was tenured or on tenure track, similar with 2018‒2019. More than three-quarters of full-time and part-time faculty were clinical faculty in 2021‒2022. There was a 62% increase in open faculty positions between 2018‒2019 and 2021‒2022. Women accounted for four in 10 faculty members in 2021‒2022—more than 3 years before. The median age of dental school faculty declined from 56 to 54 years old between 2019 and 2022.

Conclusions

This study found that dental school faculty was increasingly younger, with more women members and more open positions in 2021‒2022 than in 2018‒2019.

牙科学院教师的趋势：2021-2022年ADEA牙科学院教师人口普查和2018-2019年ADEA牙科学院教师调查的结果分析

目的/目标美国牙科教育协会（American Dental Education Association，ADEA）每年都会收集有关美国牙科学校教职员工的人口统计、薪酬、职位空缺和流失的数据。本项目相关报告的目的之一是向美国牙科学院提供有关全国牙科学院教师趋势的信息。本报告研究了 2021-2022 年美国认证牙科学院的教师队伍状况以及与 2018-2019 学年相比的变化。报告中包含的信息包括教师职位信息、新教师和离职教师、开放或空缺的教师职位、流失的教师职位以及教师人口统计数据。方法报告分析了2018-2019年ADEA牙科学院教师调查（估计占全职和兼职教师的91%）和2021-2022年ADEA牙科学院教师薪资和人口普查（估计占教师的84%）的数据。结果分析显示，2021-2022年超过一半的牙科学院教师在南部和东北部。在受访学校中，2021-2022 年有 85% 的教师专注于教学、研究和培训，这一比例与 2018-2019 年相似。五分之一的教师为终身教职或终身教职，与 2018-2019 年相似。2021-2022 年，超过四分之三的全职和兼职教师是临床教师。2018-2019 年至 2021-2022 年期间，开放的教职增加了 62%。2021-2022 年，每 10 名教职员工中就有 4 名女性，比 3 年前有所增加。2019年至2022年间，牙科学院教师的年龄中位数从56岁降至54岁。结论本研究发现，与2018-2019年相比，2021-2022年牙科学院教师越来越年轻，女性成员越来越多，空缺职位也越来越多。
