Now in its third year, our post doctoral fellowship program is going strong. Our first group of post docs have completed their fellowships and we are eager to begin a new year with three new scholars (current fellows).  Our fellowship program, which is run jointly with the Program in Global Justice, attracts scholars with a strong normative research interests. These individuals are from diverse backgrounds and have research interests in both domestic and international topics. It is our hope that our post docs will help us develop an inter-disciplinary ethics community across the campus.
