International Application for the Following Position

Postdoctoral, Master’s Researcher Positions at the Structural Engineering Laboratory

The Structural Engineering Laboratory in the Department of Architecture & Architectural Engineering, Hankyong National University, started a long journey for a leading research group in South Korea with a passion for Architectural and Civil Engineering. The research laboratory has now ongoing research projects granted by Government. With stable financial support, we are actively doing research tasks. We’re inviting candidates for our research team members.

For Potential Applicants:

Based on research projects granted by the government, we are inviting promising foreign researchers to join our team. Applicants should have enthusiasm for research and good English skills for communication. Monthly stipend and settlement support, incentives depending on performances as well as tuition fees and insurance will be supported by the laboratory. It is expected that applicants would publish international journal papers during his/her appointment in the laboratory with the given or their own developed research topics. Should you are interested in joining our research group, please submit your CV with a brief research plan by email. hju@hknu.ac.kr

Q1. What’s the difference between structural engineering, civil engineering and architectural engineering?

They are interconnected. Please refer to the following related to structural engineering.

- Civil Engineering: Structural engineering of bridge and foundation (usually with knowledge of soil and water)

- Architectural Engineering: Building structures (should consider gravity load and lateral loads such as actions due to wind and earthquake)

Q2. Are courses fully taught in English? Or a student should possess some level of TOPIK to study and understand materials during the learning process?

Lectures are basically in Korean because there are Korean students, but currently, the number of students is very limited, so I hope I can explain the contents in English in parallel. Anyway, it would be quite challenging for you. Also, eventually, I want you to get used to the Korean language. Of course, research can be done in English for better communication. You don't have to grab a TOPIK certificate when you enter the university, but you are "recommended" to have the certificate when you get the master's degree.

Q3. How much do I need to get paid to survive in Korea?

$600 ~ $900/month would be enough to study and live in South Korea.

Q4. How long does it take for master’s or Ph.D. course?

It would take at least 2 and 3.5 years to get master’s and Ph.D. degrees, respectively. It could take a couple of more semesters which might be due to some time you need to adapt yourself to the language and Korea itself.
