Description
The Wilsey Distinguished Graduate Fellowships, administered by the University of Notre Dame’s Institute for Ethics and the Common Good, are designed for advanced Ph.D. students in the College of Arts and Letters whose research and career trajectories are fundamentally shaped by interdisciplinary engagement with major ethical questions. Fellows pursue their own doctoral research with a strong ethical focus, participate in specialized programming such as seminars and workshops, and join a vibrant intellectual community dedicated to exploring ethics, public life, and the common good. The fellowship fosters the development of scholars committed to integrating rigorous academic inquiry with ethical reflection and leadership in their fields.
