The job will include research project design and administration, writing grant applications, and conducting fieldwork, including interviews and site visits. The fieldwork will largely take place in Kyushu, Japan, with the possibility of further research travel to other parts of Japan, Taiwan, and the US. Therefore, the applicant ideally already has experience in grant writing and project administration within Japan, as well as participation in international projects. The fellow will gain experience in co-authoring and possibly single authoring journal articles, grant applications, international conference participation, and other research outputs. Time permitting, the fellow will also have ample opportunity to pursue their own research agenda, with the support of the PI and Kyushu University.
