[KS] Call for applications: USC Korean Studies Institute postdoctoral fellowships

[David Kang]

The USC Korean Studies Institute postdoctoral fellowships, 2013-2014 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. 
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.
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 Elaine Kim, Associate Director, USC-Korean Studies Institute, (elaineek at dornsife.usc.edu).  The deadline for the receipt of all materials is February 5, 2013. It is strongly encouraged that applicants apply by email, although we will accept hardcopy applications, as well.
