The University Center for Human Values invites practitioners, faculty members of any discipline and independent scholars to apply for visiting residential fellowships for 2025-26. Scholars are expected to reside in or around Princeton or demonstrate to the program’s satisfaction the ability to be on campus daily. The fellowship is a full-time commitment that typically extends from September 1 to June 1.  

Fellows will devote the full academic year to research, discussion, and scholarly collaboration on topics related to law and normative inquiry. Under exceptional circumstances, fellowships for one semester may be considered. Scholars will participate in the weekly seminar of the Program in Law and Normative Thinking and will also be asked to spend some time mentoring JD/PhD students who attend that seminar.  

Applicants must have a doctorate, juris doctor, or an equivalent professional degree at the time of submission. The program is open to senior and junior scholars, domestic and international scholars, and those based in law schools or in the practice of law and those who are home are in other disciplines.  This is not, however, a post-doctoral or visiting assistant professor opportunity designed to launch young scholars into academic careers.
