Faculty and Staff

Within each sector, most full-time faculty were White; public two-year (74.1 percent) and private nonprofit four-year institutions (71.3 percent) had the largest concentrations of faculty in this group. Black or African American and Hispanic or Latino faculty held 12.0 percent and 10.4 percent, respectively, of all full-time faculty positions at for-profit institutions. Furthermore, Hispanic or Latino and Black or African American faculty each held 7.9 percent of all full-time faculty positions at public two-year institutions. Asian faculty held 13.1 percent of all full-time faculty positions at public four-year institutions but only 4.9 percent of full-time faculty positions at public two-year institutions. American Indian or Alaska Native faculty held 0.8 percent of all full-time faculty positions at public two-year institutions—twice the share of full-time faculty positions that they held at public four-year institutions (0.4 percent) and quadruple the share that they held at private nonprofit four-year institutions (0.2 percent).
