The University of Michigan has been named one of the 2008 Great Colleges to Work For by the Chronicle of Higher Education.
UM was in the unranked top five in 13 of 27 categories for institutions with 2,500 or more employees in the Chronicle program. The rankings address faculty-administration relations, compensation and benefits and work/life balance.
The university was selected based on its responses to an extensive questionnaire that asked about salary, benefits and programs that support faculty and staff, leadership development and the structure of governance, among others. The Chronicle also conducted a survey of some 600 randomly selected UM faculty and staff.
UM was singled out in separate Chronicle coverage for its approach to leadership development and shared governance.
