Be a Tar Heel:

Southeast Asian Studies is a vibrant and growing field at UNC-CH, featuring faculty experts in a variety of disciplines, highly motivated graduate and undergraduate students, and administrative support. Funding for programming and research is provided by our pan-Asia national resource center, as well as private and internal grants. We regularly collaborate with the Asian American Center and their associated faculty, and we are excited to launch our new Southeast Asian Studies minor this Fall 2024 semester.

Primary Purpose of Organizational Unit:

Carolina Asia Center is the flagship Asia institute of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and the leading center of its kind in the southeastern U.S. Our mission is to promote intercultural exchange between the U.S. and Asia, and to improve and support education and research on Asia. We develop resources for engagement with Asia-related topics through seminars, language study, outreach, cultural competency, study abroad and visiting scholars programs. Beyond Carolina, we collaborate with regional and international institutions to develop educational programs that focus on Asia.

Position Summary:

The Carolina Asia Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill seeks a candidate for a one-year (renewable for a second year) postdoctoral scholar whose work addresses Southeast Asia and its transnational connections, preferably but not necessarily the Southeast Asian diaspora in the US Southeast. The successful candidate’s research should adapt traditional area studies to contemporary realities by situating the world region amidst overseas linkages broadly defined, from human migration and community networks to energy, trade, language, ecology, art, and/or other connective processes. Organized by UNC’s Bringing Southeast Asia Home initiative and funded by the Henry Luce Foundation’s program on Southeast Asia, this position will be located in the department that most closely aligns with the successful candidate’s academic discipline, pending approval from that department. We invite applications from scholars based in arts and humanities, as well as social and natural sciences, so long as their scholarship addresses the theme. In addition to advancing their own research project, the successful candidate will be expected to participate in the intellectual community of Southeast Asian Studies at UNC, including presenting their work at an annual UNC Southeast Asia workshop, and, dependent on approval from the scholar’s department and dean, teach one course per academic year related to the theme of the position.

Minimum Education and Experience Requirements:

Ph.D. in related field. Applicants must have completed the terminal degree no later than July 1, 2025, and no earlier than July 1, 2020.

Required Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience:

This position requires a Ph.D. and demonstrated engagement with Southeast Asian and/or Southeast Asian diaspora studies.

Preferred Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience:

Experience with publishing and teaching courses related to the theme of the grant. Experience in research that connects broadly to the US Southeast. Recent experience in Southeast Asia or with Southeast Asian diaspora(s) preferred.
