...an AP. Is this place like a Qatar extension campus, where nepotism rules and faculty can be fired arbitrarily? Or is it really different, as Duke advertises?
What's the deal with Duke-Kunshan university? They are hiring...

It's similar to to the Qatar collaborations. The faculty is subject to the Wuhan University rules and regulations as well as the whims of the Chinese Ministry of Education and the local Education Board.
Go on please....so why bother applying? Do Duke faculty actually volunteer to teach there?

No. But if you pay people enough they'll spend a semester anywhere. Duke and NYU and all these places can say whatever they want and rake in the $$$ but lets not kid ourselves that it's a "western" experience.

In a evil plot twist of fate, you get to support the dictatorship that let the virus spread, and work for Wuhan University:
Duke Kunshan University (DKU) is a Chinese-American partnership of Duke University (Durham, North Carolina, United States) and Wuhan University (Wuhan, Hubei, China)
I would rather be a bartender than work for Wuham University and support their lies. Duke has no face supporting this dictatorship. I guess money can buy anything, including desperate academics....

In terma of China, good location. I believe near Shanghai, plus they have speed train. You can travel all around East Asia during holidays. Eat local food, like donkey or dog. Asian girls love white men and loath dark men. And when it gets boring after a few years—East Asians do not become friends—you leave. ‘Duke’ will look good on CV.

Wuhan will also look good on your CV.

they do not pay well (38K-42K), but it's china and that's more than enough.
this is just wrong, they pay way more, dont know why u make that up. there is one Columbia phd and one NYU phd going there this fall now, both of them non-asian so i guess they dont speak chinese. check them out if u are serious abt the position.
