Insect Science Career Data



ESA offers a salary, compensation, and benefits benchmarking survey tool. The 2024 survey data collection is now open, as of March 2025, and will close at the end of the year.

Applying for jobs? Curious about where your current salary and benefits stand compared to your peers? Or, are you posting a job opening at your institution? By participating in ESA's annual salary benchmarking survey, you can inform your future career decisions, or evaluate the competitiveness of salaries prior to posting the job to ensure you are attracting the right candidates. 

 

ALL INDIVIDUALS WHO WORK IN ENTOMOLOGY OR A RELATED FIELD ARE ENCOURAGED TO PARTICIPATE BY ENTERING THEIR CURRENT SALARY INFORMATION.

ESA's benchmarking survey tool will collect salary and benefit information annually to provide the best snapshot of the current employment of the industry. The survey results will help ESA to evaluate the potential needs of members within the profession, where to direct resources, and how to advocate on members behalf.   

Anyone in entomology or a related field can participate in the annual salary benchmarking survey. To participate, read the informed consent statement and login to the platform using your entsoc.org credentials. Filtered results access is limited to current ESA members. You may save and return to the site as often as you like to enter your data.  Returning users should use the same login profile each time.

By participating in the ESA Insect Science Career Data, participants grant ESA permission to use their data to update ESA member profiles, to produce reports and/or for other purposes not yet identified. Personal, identifiable information will not be shared or presented in any format. All data will be reported in the aggregate and no data will be shared with third party vendors.
