***Deadline to Apply: November 14, 2025***
The University of California, Los Angeles Health Ethics Center is seeking applicants for our two-year, full-time, Post-Doctoral Clinical Ethics Fellowship Program. The successful applicant will commit to a demanding clinical schedule, providing supervised clinical ethics consultation, on-call coverage, education throughout the UCLA Health system, assistance in developing institutional policies, service as a member of three ethics committees, and participate in the Center's scholarly and research activities.
The goal of the UCLA Clinical Ethics Fellowship Program is to provide the ethics fellow with the clinical education, experience and training necessary to function, upon completion of our 2 year fellowship program, as a professional clinical ethicist. Both the educational and practical dimensions of the fellowship program have as their primary and immediate goal the acquisition of the knowledge base and skill-set necessary for advanced proficiency in clinical ethics consultation. The newly revised ‘advanced’ Core Competencies for Health Care Ethics Consultation specified by the American Society for Bioethics and the Humanities form the basis for identifying and evaluating proficiency in clinical ethics consultation necessary to successfully complete the fellowship program. In addition to helping fellows acquire advanced consultation competence, the fellowship program will also provide opportunities to develop skills in clinical ethics education, policy-development and research.
Ultimately, the UCLA Health Ethics Center's overarching commitment is to excellence in patient care. Given the value-laden nature of healthcare, this excellence can only be achieved in care environments where moral insight, sensitivity, and commitment flourish. Our Fellowship Program exists to educate and train gifted individuals who share this vision.
***This is a 2-year contract effective August 17, 2026- August 16, 2028***
Pay Range: UCLA Health's salary range for this title code is $86,400- $184,800 Annually. Please note that the compensation for this Fellowship is approved as below:
- $90K - 1st year
- $95K - 2nd year
The successful candidate must have:
- Ph.D. in bioethics/healthcare ethics; or a Ph.D. in moral philosophy/philosophical ethics with a bioethics/healthcare ethics related dissertation
- Preference will be given to candidates with teaching experience in (bio)ethics at university-level and a demonstrated record of ethics publication in peer reviewed journals.
- a strong aptitude for clinical ethics, commitment to the professionalization of clinical ethics, and be able to demonstrate significant potential to become a leader in the field.
- the ability to integrate cross-cultural care, end-of-life/palliative care, psychosocial and spiritual care into clinical care is critical to this role.
We are searching for a compassionate and empathic professional with excellent interpersonal skills who is able to utilize critical and creative thinking in navigating complex ethical issues. A commitment to collaborative work in a fast-paced environment is essential.
