PBA Home > Institutional Research & Analysis > Peer Institutions Peer Institutions CU-Boulder considers the AAU (American Association of Universities) public institutions as its peer group for comparisons of faculty salaries, instruction, and many other activities. Comparisons on tuition, funding, and more Map of all AAU institutions: We usually exclude Toronto and McGill (in Canada) from the list of public AAUs; all US public AAU's are listed below. For peer comparisons we sometimes exclude Rutgers, which has unionized faculty; sometimes exclude schools using FASB rather than GASB financial reporting rules (Rutgers, Penn State, Pitt); sometimes exclude all those with medical activity. Public AAU's, United States only, N = 34. * No medical school, N = 15. University of Arizona The AAU is a group of over 60 Research I universities; membership is by invitation only. Visit the AAU website for more information on the AAU, a list of all institutions (including privates) with their membership date, and a link to their homepage. All public AAU's belong to the "AAU Data Exchange" (AAUDE), a group not officially part of the AAU. AAUDE members, which include some privates, exchange data on a number of topics. See our faculty-salary comparisons for an example of one way in which we've used these comparative data. The AAUDE also sponsors an electronic-based mechanism for exchanging ad hoc queries. CCHE peer institutions for CU-Boulder -- all AAU US public without medical activity, excluding Rutgers, Penn State, and Purdue. N=11 without CU-Boulder. Some are land grant. |
