Everyone,
My department here at SNU in Korea is advertising several tenure track
positions, including ecology (see below). I arrived here about 6 months ago,
and my experiences of the place have been overwhelmingly positive. My academic
colleagues are very helpful and friendly, the students are very hardworking,
Korea in general is a very pleasant and welcoming place to live. SNU is also in
a particularly beautiful natural setting on the edge of Seoul. If you would
like to discuss coming to Korea unofficially with me, please send me an email
to my other address which is [email protected].
