Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, Texas Tech University filed 416 Labor Condition Applications covering 416 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 65.9% (274 certified of 416 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on Texas Tech University’s H-1B petitions range from $32,000 at the low end to $225,000 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $85,506. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Assistant Professor (137 petitions at $1,134,596 avg), followed by Assistant Professor and Postdoctoral Research Associate. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.
