  Poly lecturers do not need PhDs, in fact some do not even have Masters..
  
  But most uni professors will need a PhD, except for certain faculties like Law and Medicine.. That's the case for NUS at least..

  It is unfair to compare poly lecturers with Uni lecturers. Teaching comprises only a small part of a uni lecturer jobscope; they are expected to contribute to the knowledge base of their respective areas of expertise by eg. writing articles and conducting research. Teaching is just an ancillary job funciton.

  Hmmm, they earn a lot, most lecturers say they do not earn that much as we think they do. But in actual fact they are earning big bucks, but heard that the workload for them is also very heavy.

  Poly lecture also need to have lots of related job experience in order to teach... Hence before they teach, i believe most of them r working pretty and being paid pretty well outside

  poly lecturer has monthly salary ranging from e lowest 2k to abt nearly 10k
  
  it depends on what "rank" you are.... like if u are a module coordinator or the module overall in-charge
  
  the highest pay in poly are the directors of each school.....
