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.

Tulane was founded in 1834 as the Medical College of Louisiana in an effort to address the city’s Yellow Fever epidemic. In 1884, merchant Paul Tulane donated over $1 million to endow a university “for the promotion and encouragement of intellectual, moral, and industrial education” as an act of gratitude for the City of New Orleans. The College was renamed as Tulane University of Louisiana in his honor. The university is now comprised of ten schools, with seven on the uptown campus, and three near the original campus in downtown New Orleans. Tulane undergraduates are currently admitted to study across five main schools that comprise Newcomb-Tulane College – Architecture and Built Environment, Business, Liberal Arts, Public Health, and Science & Engineering - and have the opportunity to pursue additional academic programs in our Schools of Professional Advancement and Social Work.
