It completely depends on the institution, the field, and the type of professor (assoc., assistant, full, tenure etc.) I'd say anywhere from around 40,000 to over 100k. Alot of professors earn more through books and lectures, and various other means. The salaries for the public universities are available through the Utah's Right to Know webpage. Becoming a professor is not for those seeking riches.

"Depends, my uncle makes 250,000 a year working at a college." "Both of my parents are professors at a university. my dad is an associate professor so he makes about 100-150k (I think). My mom is a full professor and she is really important and whatnot, so she makes about 200-300k, (I think). But it takes a long time to earn all the credentials and do all the research and climb the ladder up to where my parents are, especially my mom. Plus, they work at a well-known public university."

The pay for college professors varies widely depending on their specialty and the quality and prestige of the school. Highly paid are professors in fields like medicine and science at schools with international reputations. Their salaries may be in the $150,000 to $200,000 range. Less well paid are professors in the humanities such as English or history at small, relatively unknown schools. Their pay may be in the $35,000 to $55,000 range.

Individual professors with outstanding research records may be paid more in any field since their presence is thought to enhance the prestige of the college.
