Free-Position Mellon Post-Doctoral Fellow in Korean/East Asian Archeology and History

at Oberlin College in USA

MELLON POST-DOCTORAL FELLOW IN KOREAN/EAST ASIAN ARCHEOLOGY AND HISTORY



The East Asian Studies and Anthropology Departments at Oberlin College invites applications for a non-continuing faculty position as a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship in the College of Arts and Sciences. Appointment to this position will be for a term of two years beginning Fall 2012 and will carry the rank of Visiting Assistant Professor. The position is supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and by a challenge grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

The incumbent will teach in the general area of Korean/East Asian archeology and history of any period from 2nd c. BCE - 900 CE (pre-Three Kingdoms period to Unified Silla). The area of specialization is open. We encourage candidates to apply whose research interests also focus on international disputes over historical interpretation, the popularization of the ancient past in popular culture as well the politicization of history. Qualified candidates should have substantial experience of research and scholarship in Korean and East Asian archeology as well as full command of the regional historical debates related to these more contemporary issues. Total course load is two courses per academic year. Further information is available at:

To be assured of consideration, applicants should submit a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, graduate transcripts, a writing sample, title and brief summary of a proposed course; and three letters of reference to: Sheila Miyoshi Jager, Chair, East Asian Studies Program 50 North Professor Street Peters Hall 316 Oberlin Ohio 44074. Review of the applications will begin on January 23, 2012, and will continue until the position is filled.
