Dear all,

The James Joo-Jin Kim Center for Korean Studies at the University of Pennsylvania announces a Moon Family Postdoctoral Fellowship for the 2026–27 academic year. The postdoctoral fellowship is open to scholars from any discipline with a research and teaching focus on Korea.
The fellowship is the 12-month period between August 1, 2026 and July 31, 2027 and carries a minimum stipend of $67,000 as well as conference travel funds up to $2,000. The postdoctoral fellow will also receive a shared office space and access to libraries and other resources at Penn. The fellowship may be renewed for a second year, based on satisfactory performance, the existence of funding, and programmatic need.
The fellow will be required to: 1) reside in the Philadelphia area; 2) teach one Korea-related course per year; 3) give a public presentation for the Korean Studies Colloquium; 4) mentor the Kim Center graduate and undergraduate fellows; 5) participate in the Kim Center events and related activities at Penn; and 6) organize a Korean Studies Conference (either in Fall 2026 or in Spring 2027).
