In 2005, Stephenson joined the faculty of Harvard Law School as an assistant professor.[2] In 2009, he was granted tenure and in 2010 was named a professor.[3] In 2012, he received the Charles Fried Intellectual Diversity Award from the Law School.[4] In 2018, he was named as the Eli Goldston Professor of Law.
