MISSION

The Social Science Research Council Korean Studies Dissertation Workshop seeks to create a sustained network of advanced graduate students and faculty engaged in research on Korea. The four-day workshop provides an informal setting for participants to give and receive critical feedback on dissertations in progress.

This year's mentor faculty include Nancy Abelmann (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Suk-young Kim (University of California, Santa Barbara), and Jun Yoo (University of Hawaii at Manoa). An additional mentor will be drawn from the sociology or political science fields.

. Only full-time advanced graduate students, regardless of citizenship, who are enrolled at US or Canadian institutions are eligible.

. Participants may be in any social science or humanities field.

. Applicants must have an approved dissertation prospectus but cannot have completed writing for final submission.

. Special consideration will be given to students from universities that are not major Korean Studies institutions.
