Five Postdoctoral Fellowships at Yonsei University

The Department of Astronomy at Yonsei University and the Yonsei University Observatory (Seoul, South Korea) invite applications for Lee Wonchul Postdoctoral Fellowship and Yonsei Rufus Postdoctoral Fellowship in all branches of astronomy. Five positions will be awarded for 2016 with the initial appointment of two years and a possible extension to another year after evaluation. Preference will be given to the applicants whose research interests reasonably overlap with those of our faculty. The research areas of the faculty include galaxy formation and evolution, stellar evolution and populations, supernova cosmology, radiative hydrodynamics, weak lensing and large scale structure, very long baseline interferometry observations, small bodies in the solar system, space optics, and satellite orbital dynamics and control. More information can be found at our homepage - http://galaxy2.yonsei.ac.kr/enghome. 
 
 

The salary will be in the range of 30,000-50,000 USD/year (subject to change depending on exchange rates) and commensurate with experience and qualification. Research budget of 5,000 USD/year and all basic insurance benefits will be provided.
 
 

Successful candidates should have a Ph.D. or equivalent, degree in astronomy or related fields before starting the term. Starting date is flexible.
 
 

Applicants should submit a CV with a publication list, a brief summary of research interests, and a list of three people who will write a reference letter upon request when the applicant is short-listed. The application due is 2016 Feb 29. Email applications and inquiries should be sent to Prof. Aeree Chung (achung@yonsei.ac.kr).
