The East Asian Institute (EAI) at the National University of Singapore is Asia's premier English-language research institute on China and other East Asian societies. Located on the historic Bukit Timah Campus, the institute boasts of superb library facilities and research support.

EAI seeks to appoint two or more research fellows and senior research fellows. Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in a social science discipline (esp. economics, political science, sociology, and international relations) and must be interested in conducting academic and policy-relevant research on contemporary China or overseas Chinese. Successful candidates will be offered an initial contract of up to two years (renewable).

The Institute also has separate openings for established scholars who wish to come to EAI for short-term visiting appointments.

The commencing salary will depend on the candidate's qualifications, experience and the level of appointment offered. Depending on the type of contracts and appointments offered, benefits may include provident fund benefits or a special payment for expatriate staff, travel assistance and housing allowance.
