IF YOU WANT A TRADITIONAL EXPERIENCE, THAT’S NOT TULANE.
We acknowledge and pay tribute to the original inhabitants of this land. The city of New Orleans is a continuation of an indigenous trade hub on the Mississippi River, known for thousands of years as Bulbancha. Native peoples have lived on this land since time immemorial, and the resilient voices of Native Americans remain an inseparable part of our local culture. With gratitude and honor, we acknowledge the indigenous nations that have lived and continue to thrive here.

WHERE YOU CAN FORGE YOUR OWN PATH.
INTERDISCIPLINARY IS MORE THAN A PHILOSOPHY
You will never encounter a workplace with people who have the exact same knowledge, skillset, and experience that you do. That’s why an interdisciplinary education is critical in developing the next generation of the workforce. Whether you’re interested in how psychology influences business, the intersections of philosophy and architecture, or applied mathematics in the social sciences, at Tulane you’re encouraged to pursue interdisciplinary fields of study. You won’t just be prepared to enter the workforce -- you will drive innovation and change.
