UNLV Human Resources - Peer Institutions

UNLV Peer Institutions for the Purposes of Compensation

These institutions are, for the most part, the land grant institution from each state. However, in New York, the land grant institution is Cornell University which is generally perceived as a private institution; the State University of New York at Buffalo is therefore substituted.

In eight states (Alaska, California, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nebraska and Tennessee), the university system is the land grant institution. In these cases, the most representative institution in the state is chosen as the peer institution. For example, in California, the University of California System is designated as the land grant institution; the University of California-Davis, is selected as the most representative comparison.
