Molly Brigid McGrath serves as Professor of Philosophy at Assumption University and Director of the Center for Teaching Excellence within the D’Amour College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Her academic leadership extends across philosophy pedagogy and institutional faculty development initiatives. Her educational foundation includes: Ph.D. in Philosophy, The Catholic University of America (2007) M.A. in Philosophy, The Catholic University of America (2003) B.A. in Political Economy and Philosophy, Mount St. Mary’s College (1999) McGrath’s research centers on phenomenological investigations of personhood and culture through Husserl and Sokolowski, alongside critical analyses of political concepts in Aristotle and Montesquieu. Her work interrogates corruption in democratic systems, the philosophical underpinnings of liberal education, and ethical frameworks in film criticism. This dual focus manifests in rigorous scholarly publications and accessible public intellectual commentary. Analysis of her 14 peer-reviewed articles (2009-2017) reveals consistent engagement with continental philosophy’s application to socio-political structures. Key trajectories include phenomenological deconstructions of institutional reality, Aristotelian critiques of modern political economy, and Sokolowskian explorations of truth and personhood—all converging on questions of cultural integrity and moral responsibility. No formal scientific awards are documented in available records. As an educator, McGrath mentors students through diverse philosophy courses ranging from introductory ethics to advanced phenomenology seminars. Her directed studies program supports undergraduate research in 20th-century continental philosophy, liberal education theory, and Husserl’s Cartesian Meditations, reflecting her commitment to cultivating philosophical rigor in emerging scholars. Her directorship of the Center for Teaching Excellence represents a significant institutional contribution, where she advances pedagogical innovation across Assumption University’s academic divisions through faculty workshops and curriculum development initiatives.
