Each year The Murphy Institute hosts three CEPA Faculty Fellows, faculty on research leave from their home institutions. They spend a year in residence at Tulane, conducting their own research while participating in CEPA's seminars, lectures, and conferences.
Established in memory of Charles H. Murphy, Sr. (1870-1954), and inspired by the vision of Charles H. Murphy, Jr. (1920-2002), The Murphy Institute exists to help Tulane faculty and students understand economic, moral, and political problems we all face and think about. More important, it exists to help us understand how these problems have come to be so closely interconnected.
