The Love Ethic Faculty Fellowships, offered by the Institute for Ethics and the Common Good at the University of Notre Dame, support scholars whose research explores the intersection of love and ethics. This residential fellowship brings together a cohort of five scholars from diverse disciplines for the 2026–27 academic year, fostering collaboration and engagement in a vibrant interdisciplinary community. Fellows participate in regular seminars, retreats, and public engagement activities, advancing research that examines love as a moral, social, and political force.
Projects may address foundational moral theory, applied ethics, cultural or social issues, or the role of love in public policy, psychology, literature, and beyond. The program aims to elevate the study of love-based ethical frameworks and their real-world implications.
