Thread went wayyyyyyy off topic by a few of the guys so it's no longer relevant.

| Work for no better pay than a newbie teaching kindergarten and beef up their publication lists? Sounds too bad to be true. |

Also, one thing that they didn't PUT in their ad. I heard this DIRECTLY from one of the teachers who quit last semester. In order to renew your contract year after year you MUST write a thesis AND get it published in an international journal. This means giving up all of your vacation time to write a paper! Otherwise you will be canned regardless of qualifications. |
i call...TROLL...on this! |

This may simply be a requirement to have an article published, which some western universities do have, although most would have more class than to make it a condition for renewal.
I see many jobs with expectations like this: 2.26 with an MA. I see uni postings in Daegu requiring a doctorate and offering 2.26. I have no evidence, but my conclusion is that the uni loses nothing with ridiculous requirements-- if someone is foolish enough to have a PhD and work for 2.26, they will be hired, and if not, the uni will hire an MA or even BA and work their way down the resume list. |

Got it. Thanks. It's amazing that places would require such work yet they aren't willing to compensate appropriately. |

No, it is in a journal. And first they promised to pay a million for first paper, two million for second. Now, just do it or lose your job. Actually, people were told that even if you publishin a journal...they don't guarantee anything.
So scratch that.

Well, they will have massive turnover and ruin their reputation...but otherwise.

I know people that still work there. I don't know if it's wise.
Oh, what the hell!
Maybe an email is best as I can't PM |
Why not share details with the rest of us? It's not as if this thread is subtle as it is, and it is actually helpful to teachers. |

| For what little it's worth, I haven't heard good things about HUFS, either. Interdepartmental conflict swallowing employees trying to please both heads, etc. |
