The Department of English, in the College of Arts and Sciences, at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York, invites applications for a tenure-track position in Korean Studies at the rank of Assistant Professor to begin in Fall 2026. We seek scholars in the humanities whose research and teaching offer an expansive approach to Korean Studies as an interdisciplinary, comparative, and transnational field. We especially welcome applicants with a background in contemporary Korean literature, film, theater, music, and broadly defined popular culture. Expertise in Asian American literature and culture will be a plus. Candidates who can help build departmental strengths in global film studies, gender and sexuality studies, or psychoanalytic theory are also encouraged to apply.
This position will contribute to the exciting expansion of Korean studies at UB. With financial support from the Korea Foundation and the Academy of Korean Studies, among others, the Asia Research Institute is committed to fostering scholarship on Korea in the College of Arts and Sciences and the university as a whole.
The new faculty member will be expected to maintain an active research agenda, to teach 2 courses per semester, at least 50% of these courses on Korean cultural production, cross-listed with the Asian studies program, in addition to courses that contribute to the English department's teaching mission; and fulfill service duties at the departmental, university, and disciplinary levels.
The position is open until filled, with an initial application deadline of November 17, 2025. All application material must be submitted via UB Jobs via the following link: https://www.ubjobs.buffalo.edu/postings/59597
