Postdoctoral Researcher, 10 Posts, Circular Chemistry (₩90,000,000 a Year, E-3 Visa Route Named) — Ulsan

A research centre run by UNIST with the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology is recruiting ten postdoctoral researchers in circular chemistry based on marine carbon upcycling. Ten posts at ninety million won a year is the largest well-paid research intake on this board.

■ What the announcement says about foreign applicants
- It carries a dedicated section headed foreign applicant eligibility, which says you must meet the requirements to apply for an E-3 visa. Naming the visa route is far more useful than silence.
- It states that researchers holding foreign nationality, or who came through study in Korea as international students, are included, and that foreign researchers already living in Korea are also eligible.
- It also states there is no restriction on age or gender.

■ Terms
- 90,000,000 won a year. The announcement notes that figure includes the employer's statutory contributions such as the four national insurances, so the take-home is lower than the headline.
- A one-year contract, renewable up to five years. Your contract is with UNIST and the work is in Ulsan.

■ How to apply
- Through the expression of interest form linked below. The closing date is 18:00 on 27 October 2026, though the centre says it keeps the process running on a rolling basis until all ten posts are filled.
- One thing to know: the attachment carries older template text giving a 2026 start date that has passed. The live application window is the one above.
