Assistant Professor Desirée Lim to join Philosophy Department in August 2018

The Department of Philosophy is delighted to announce that Desirée Lim will be joining the department as Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Rock core faculty member in August 2018!

Desirée completed her PhD in Philosophy at King’s College London, and is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the McCoy Center for Ethics in Society, Stanford University. Her primary research interests lie in contemporary political philosophy, with a special focus on questions about migration, citizenship, and global justice. Her current book project, Immigration and Social Equality, provides a distinctive social egalitarian critique of existing immigration practices (such as wrongfully discriminatory selection processes). She also has strong interests in bio-ethics, feminist philosophy, and the critical philosophy of race. 

We look forward to welcoming Desirée next Fall!
