She worked at a law firm in Tokyo for a year, and later attended Iran's University of Tehran, where she was the first woman and first non-Muslim to study fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). She received her PhD in Persian literature in 1971, and then moved to the faculty of theology.
She received her MA in Islamic jurisprudence in 1975, but shortly before completing her PhD in fiqh, the Iranian Revolution caused her and her husband William Chittick to leave the country. Murata resettled at SUNY Stony Brook in Stony Brook, New York, in 1983 where she teaches Islam, Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism.[5]
