Description
Assistant Professor in Ethics

The McDonough School of Business seeks to add to its ethics faculty. We have one opening for a tenure-track assistant professor of ethics to begin in the 2026-27 academic year. We have a strong preference for applicants who are ready to teach ethics courses in the MBA and executive curriculum as well as at the undergraduate level. McDonough's ethics courses are an amalgam of true normative ethics with social psychology, political science, and economics. All contain an experiential aspect in which the students engage in real-time ethical decision-making. We seek a dynamic classroom teacher able to publish research that can meet McDonough's rigorous standards for tenure.

This position I open to recent PhDs in normative disciplines such as philosophy, political science, business ethics, and public policy, social science applicants researching behavioral ethics and moral psychology, as well as to recent law graduates who hold a PhD in a cognate field. Compensation is highly competitive.
