Welcome to Tulane University. Founded in 1834, Tulane is one of the most highly regarded and selective independent research universities in the United States. A member of the prestigious Association of American Universities, we take pride in being a part of this select group of universities with “pre-eminent programs of graduate and professional education and scholarly research.” Our schools and colleges offer undergraduate, graduate and professional degrees in the liberal arts, science and engineering, architecture, business, law, social work, medicine and public health and tropical medicine.

Tulane University combines the very best of a top-tier research university with a strong commitment to high-quality undergraduate education. Small class sizes (average of 24) ensure individual attention from our world-renowned faculty for students at all levels. Hands-on research projects, service-learning projects and internships give real-world experience in over 75 different academic programs. Our location in New Orleans, a city that is internationally celebrated for its food, music and architecture, offers students a unique learning environment .The university is ranked by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a university with “very high research activity”, placing Tulane in the top 2% of universities nationwide in regards to research.

Tulane strives to connect its values and mission to the needs of the community both locally and globally. Faculty and staff lend their expertise to rebuilding efforts and students gain real-world experience while putting their skills to use in the community.

The undergraduate experience is marked by close student-faculty interaction, a variety of campus programs, and a diverse student body representing all 50 states and more than 40 different countries. Tulane undergraduates will have full-time faculty teaching them right from the start.
