Description

- The announcement offers faculty housing free for the first two years, then at roughly a third of market rent for the following three. For anyone moving to Seoul that is a substantial part of the package, and it is rare to see it spelled out.
- It also offers start-up research funds which it says may partly cover relocation costs.
■ Terms
- One post. No salary figure is published.
■ How to apply
- By the route given in the announcement. Applications run from 19 October to 4 December 2026.
