  • Are Australia's Universities Getting Value for Money When It Comes To
    Are Australia’s universities getting value for money when it comes to Vice Chancellors? Correction 15 August 2013 In earlier versions of this paper, the remuneration package of the Vice Chancellor of the University of Newcastle in 2012 was incorrectedly reported as being $1,035,000. This is incorrect and the correct value was $598,000. The payment of over $1m in remuneration (from p44 of Vol 2 of Univiesity of Newcastle Annual Report 2012) was made to an anonymous person, who clearly was not the VC. We aplogise to Prof McMillen for misrepersenting the position. The following tables and charts have been amended to correct this error. An analysis of the 2012 Annual reports of Australia’s 37 public universities shows that their Vice Chancellors (VCs) were well financially rewarded for their efforts. In total the VCs received remuneration packages worth close to $30m. The data in Figure 1 and Table 1 shows that total remuneration ranged from $1.2m for the VC of Macquarie University (who for the bulk of 2012 was Prof Steven Schwartz) to a little over $300,000 for Prof Andrew Vann at Charles Sturt University (CSU). The data also clearly indicates that Prof Vann’s remuneration package is very much an outlier with the next lowest package being almost being in excess of 50% higher than his package at $466,000 (USQ). As a matter of interest the Prime Minister’s salary is about $500,000, which means there are only two Australian VCs whose remuneration packet is less than the PM’s salary.
