The Center for Ethics at Tulane University’s Murphy Institute invites applications for three Faculty Fellowships/Visiting Research Professorships for the 2024-2025 academic year. These one-year fellowships are available to support outstanding faculty whose teaching and research focus on ethics; political and social philosophy; moral psychology; or questions of moral choice in areas such as economics, business, government, law, public health and medicine.

While fellows will participate in The Murphy Institute’s vibrant intellectual community through seminars, lectures, and conferences organized by the Murphy Institute across our Center for Ethics, Center for Public Policy Research, and Center on Law and the Economy, they will be expected to devote most of their time to conducting their research.

Faculty Fellows are appointed as Visiting Research Professors at Tulane University’s Murphy Institute, receive a salary of $70,000, and are eligible for faculty benefits, including medical insurance. Faculty Fellows enjoy the use of private faculty offices and receive assistance from the Murphy Institute staff and graduate assistants. The Murphy Institute’s Center for Ethics is one of the most active in the country, hosting fourteen guest speakers and sponsoring several international conferences each year.
