It is expected that the amendments to the Law on Higher Education, the Draft of which is now under public discussion, will define and standardize the salaries of emeritus professors in Serbia.
Belgrade University has 53 emeritus. The amount of their salary, like that of their colleagues at other universities in the country, depends on the faculty.
Namely, the compensation for the work of professor emeritus is not defined, so it happened that some faculties even asked candidates for the title of emeritus to promise that they would not ask for any material compensation for their work.
This relationship was the reason for founding the Association of Emeritus Professors last May, which brought together professors from all state universities in Serbia.
The president of this association, Branko Kovačević, revealed earlier that some faculties even asked for a promise from candidates for the title of emeritus that they would not ask for any financial compensation for their work.
"Some receive compensation equal to the salary of a full-time professor, some receive half of that, some receive a third, and there are also people who receive nothing." It turns out that you depend on whether a dean likes you or not. This issue should be resolved in a unique way and the state, if it has passed a law, should also provide funding, as it provided for professors who have had their employment extended," Kovacevic told Danas earlier.
In the Draft of Amendments to the Law on Higher Education, which is now under public discussion, it was proposed that the emeritus sign a contract with a higher education institution, according to which he will receive a salary as a regular professor whose employment relationship has been extended. This would stop the aforementioned practice, and it is expected that it would also affect the admission of new emeritus.
Previously, the salary of the emeritus was paid from the budget of the University of Belgrade. The rule was that it amounted to 33 percent of the salary of a full-time professor. However, this item was not included in the change in the higher education financing regulation, so the faculties had to pay emeritus compensation from their own income.
It soon turned out that some faculties were not able to pay those fees because they either did not have their own income, or they had other priorities, so a small number of professors were chosen as emeritus.
According to the Draft Amendments to the Law on Higher Education, it is proposed that this title be awarded to someone who has retired in the previous two school years, and it is expected that the requirement to have at least three mentorships on doctoral dissertations will have an impact on the rejuvenation of this staff.
