He then returned to the United States and in 1998 received his Ph.D. in East Asian studies at Harvard University.[14] He served as assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign,[15][16] George Washington University,[15] and Solbridge International School of Business.[17] Pastreich was an associate professor at the College of International Studies, Kyung Hee University.[18][19]

Pastreich previously served as an international relations adviser to the governor of Chungnam Province,[20] as an external relations adviser at the Daedeok Innopolis research cluster,[21] and was appointed to serve on the committee for city administration (2010-2011) and for foreign investment (2009-2010) for the city of Daejeon.[22][23]
