Celia Fisher, Ph.D.
Director, Center for Ethics Education

Welcome to the Center for Ethics Education at Fordham University. The Center was created in 1999 to augment Fordham's commitment to cultivate life-long habits of critical thinking, moral reflection, and articulate expression, drawing upon the Jesuit maxims of Wisdom & Learning and Men and Women for Others. The Center provides a broad range of multidisciplinary ethics education opportunities, including degree programs, major lectures and support for ethics research and scholarship.
