The Underwood International College of Yonsei University invites

Creative Writing and Literature to teach at the Sinchon Campus in
Seoul, South Korea. The ideal candidate will have an MFA and/or Ph.D.,
a significant publication record (at least one full-length book with a
reputable publisher, or the equivalent), and demonstrated excellence
in teaching. Candidates should be able to teach creative writing
courses in more than one genre as well as introductory classes in
literary studies, and supervise theses projects for the creative
writing certificate.

Teaching responsibilities are 6 credit-hours (2 classes) per semester.
The starting date is September 2013. Compensation includes competitive
salary, health insurance and other benefits, fully-subsidized housing
(for up to 6 years), and a generous relocation and start-up package.

Yonsei University's Underwood International College is a highly
competitive program at South Korea's most prestigious private
university, and combines the intimate atmosphere and low
student-faculty ratio of a liberal arts college with the resources of
a major research university. All instruction is in English, and the
student body represents over 40 different countries. As part of Yonsei
University’s continuing effort to increase faculty diversity, we are
only accepting applications from non-Korean citizens.

Interested applicants should send a letter of application and c.v. by
email to uic@yonsei.ac.kr, mentioning CREATIVE WRITING in the subject
line. Review of applications will take place from November 1, 2012.
Short-listed candidates will be asked to submit 3 letters of
recommendation, a writing sample, and sample syllabi.
