H-1B sponsorship profile: University of Pittsburgh. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, University of Pittsburgh filed 1,094 Labor Condition Applications covering 1,094 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 96.2% (1,052 certified of 1,094 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 University of Pittsburgh’s H-1B petitions range from $31,000 at the low end to $715,104 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $86,765. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Postdoctoral Associate (239 petitions at $61,271 avg), followed by Assistant Professor and Research Assistant Professor. 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.

Geographic footprint. University of Pittsburgh is headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA under NAICS code 611310, and places H-1B workers across 2 states, most heavily in PA, KS. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where University of Pittsburgh ranks. By H-1B petition volume, University of Pittsburgh is #143 of 119,880 employers nationally and #8 of 3,282 employers headquartered in PA. The gap between the two is the point: a mid-size national sponsor can still be a top-10 name in its own state's H-1B market.
