South Dakota School of Mines and Technology

South Dakota School of Mines and Technology made 15 filings covering 15 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $75,000 a year. 14 of those 15 state a minimum and no maximum, which is what an employer is required to file — it is the floor it is bound to, not a salary offered.

Green-card sponsorship

South Dakota School of Mines and Technology filed 8 permanent labour certifications between 2025-12-04 and 2026-06-25, of which 8 were certified. That is the step an employment-based green card starts with, so this employer does sponsor them.

A wage is shown against the prevailing wage for the library year the filing itself cites, not the year current today — measured against the wrong year, a correctly-filed wage reads as underpaid.
