Call for Applications – AKS Fellow-in-Residency Program at Goethe University of Frankfurt

With the support of generous grants from the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea and the Academy of Korean Studies (AKS) within the framework of the Core Korean Studies Program, the Korean Studies Department at Goethe University of Frankfurt is accepting applications for its Fellow-in-Residency program. The program is open to scholars whose research and teaching pertains to Korea from a larger comparative or interdisciplinary. As specified in the Research Plan of the Frankfurt Core Korean Studies Program, a project that connects with the theme of “Cultivating diversity: the global in Korea, Korea in the global” would be highly desirable approach.
The fellow must hold a Ph.D. degree and currently be a university lecturer/professor in the humanities and social sciences, who is engaged in Korea-related teaching and research activities. Previous experience in research into the Frankfurt Core Korean Studies Project theme of “Cultivating Diversity: the global in Korea, Korea in the global” is highly desirable.
The successful candidate will be expected to:

(1) reside in Frankfurt up to 2 months during the semester periods (between May and June or November and January)
(2) publish a peer-reviewed journal article within two years of the end of the fellowship with acknowledgment to the fellowship programme
(3) teach 2 seminars (one for Frankfurt Korean Studies students, one for Hamburg/Bonn) preferably in German language. The two seminars can be identical, but should be held at two different universities,
(4) participate in the department’s academic and cultural activities, such as colloquia, workshops, and conferences.

The fellowship will cover up to a two-month period in 2022/2023 and provide a stipend of 5,000 euros, a contribution towards costs for publication, shared office space and access to libraries and resources at Goethe University.
Goethe University of Frankfurt strongly values diversity and is committed to equal opportunity in employment. Members of diverse racial and ethnic groups and qualified women are therefore strongly encouraged to apply. Applications from disabled candidates will be given preference if the qualifications of these candidates are identical to those of a non-disabled candidate. Applications should consist of the following documents: 1) letter of application; 2) curriculum vitae; 3) research proposal.

Applications will be accepted only in one electronic format (PDF), sent to Prof. Yonson Ahn (Email: korea at uni-frankfurt.de<mailto:y.ahn at em.uni-frankfurt.de>).
