The Murphy Institute’s Center for Ethics (CE) at Tulane University is pleased to announce that applications are now open for the 2027-2028 CE Faculty Fellowship Program. These one-year fellowships are available to support outstanding faculty whose teaching and research focus on ethics; political and social philosophy; moral psychology, agency and responsibility; philosophy of law; political theory; or questions of moral choice in areas such as business, government, law, economics, public health and medicine.

Fellows are appointed as Visiting Research Professors at Tulane's Murphy Institute, receive a salary of $70,000, and are eligible for faculty benefits. While fellows will participate in seminars, lectures, and conferences organized by the Murphy Institute, they will be expected to devote most of their time to conducting their research.  

We encourage candidates from a broad range of disciplines to apply. Applicants must hold a doctorate and a full-time college or university appointment at the time of application. Fellowships are open to full-time faculty at all ranks.

The deadline to apply is December 15, 2026. Applications must be submitted via Tulane University’s Job Portal. Application detals can be found at https://murphy.tulane.edu/centers/ce/faculty-fellows.
