<p>Funded by an institutional grant from the Academy of Korean Studies,
the USC Korean Studies Institute is accepting applications for its
2013-2014 postdoctoral fellows program. Up to two postdoctoral
fellowships will be offered. The postdoctoral program is open to
scholars from all fields whose research pertains to Korea or that
involves Korea as part of a larger comparative or interdisciplinary
research. We particularly encourage proposals from the social sciences
and non-traditional fields, such as Korean-American studies. </p>
<p>In addition to a salary and benefits, the KSI will provide each
fellow with shared office space at the KSI and a small research budget.
The fellows are expected to participate in Institute programs and
support the activities of the KSI. The Fellow must have a Ph.D. in hand,
and should be within 5 years of receiving the Ph.D., by the beginning
of the appointment.</p>
<p>To apply, please send a 1) letter of application, 2) c.v., 3) thesis
abstract, 4) two letters of recommendation (to be sent directly by the
referees), and 5) a writing sample to <strong>Elaine Kim, Associate Director, USC-Korean Studies Institute, (<a href="mailto:elaineek@dornsife.usc.edu">elaineek@dornsife.usc.edu</a>)</strong>.
