University of Massachusetts Amherst
University of Massachusetts Amherst made 54 filings covering 54 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $78,000 a year. 43 of those 54 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
University of Massachusetts Amherst filed 6 permanent labour certifications between 2025-12-09 and 2026-06-25, of which 6 were certified. That is the step an employment-based green card starts with, so this employer does sponsor them.
