Center for Ethics
Established in 2001, The Center for Ethics (CE) coordinates and supports research and discussion of ethics and public affairs. It draws from a number of overlapping fields, including moral and political philosophy, normative and applied ethics, moral psychology, political theory, and legal theory.
To contribute to the advanced research infrastructure that attracts and rewards outstanding faculty and graduate students, CE funds both a Visiting Faculty Fellowship program and a Graduate Fellowship program. To encourage Tulane undergraduates and local high school students to engage in critical examination of complex moral issues, CE established Tulane Ethics Bowl (TUEB). Ethics Bowl programming for Tulane undergraduates and local high school students supports teams by providing resources for engagement, coaching, and hosting competitions that encourage students to consider complex issues in a collaborative format that fosters respectful and rigorous dialogue.
Faculty Fellows
To date, more than 40 leading academics from Argentina, Australia, Canada, Germany, Singapore, the U.S., and the UK have spent a year in residence at CE as Faculty Fellows.
Graduate Fellows
Since 2002, the Center for Ethics has provided Graduate Fellowships to more than 40 Tulane Ph.D. students.
