YOUNG SCIENTIST
TRAINING PROGRAM (YST) 2019-1
(ONE-YEAR, RENEWABLE FOR ONE ADDITIONAL YEAR)
The Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP) opens a few positions
for the Young Scientist Training (YST) Program at the postdoctoral fellow level
in theoretical physics and related fields. The APCTP (https://www.apctp.org), founded in
1996, is a non-governmental organization aiming for an international center
dedicated to excellence in research and the training of young scientists in the
Asia-Pacific region.
JOB DESCRIPTION
The YST program aims to provide
career development opportunities for young physicists who are at an early stage
of their research career but with a proven record of research. It is
anticipated that this fellowship will lead to a more permanent academic
position. All subject areas in theoretical physics are eligible. YST
fellowships will be held at the APCTP, Pohang, Korea, where an ideal
environment for research is provided for potential collaborations with in-house
senior researchers (Junior Research Groups), POSTECH faculty & members,
visiting scholars, and participants of various scientific programs organized at
the APCTP or supported by the APCTP.
REMUNERATION
Funding is initially available for
one year, renewable for the second year depending on the research performance
and the availability of resources for the program. An annual salary, including
severance pay, is in the range of KRW 32,500,000 to KRW 40,000,000 depending on
research experience and qualification. In addition to the salary, some research
expenses and part of relocation costs, KRW 3,000,000/year are provided. The starting date is expected to be March. 1, 2019 but is
negotiable.
