    2021-2022 1 THE UNIVERSITY Mission Statement Tulane’s purpose is to create, communicate and conserve knowledge in order to enrich the capacity of individuals, organizations, and communities to think, to learn, and to act and lead with integrity and wisdom. Tulane pursues this mission by cultivating an environment that focuses on learning and the generation of new knowledge; by expecting and rewarding teaching and research of extraordinarily high quality and impact; and by fostering community-building initiatives as well as scientific, cultural and social understanding that integrate with and strengthen learning and research. This mission is pursued in the context of the unique qualities of our location in New Orleans and our continual aspiration to be a truly distinctive international university. History Tulane University, one of the foremost independent national research universities in the country, is ranked among the top quartile of the nation’s most highly selective universities. With ten schools and colleges that range from the liberal arts and sciences through a full spectrum of professional schools, Tulane gives its students a breadth of choice equaled by few other independent universities in the country. Tulane University’s ten academic divisions enroll approximately 8,000 undergraduates and about 5,000 graduate and professional students. The schools of Architecture, Business, Liberal Arts, Public Health and Tropical Medicine, and Science and Engineering offer both undergraduate and graduate programs. Other divisions include the schools of Law, Medicine, Social Work and Professional Advancement. Tulane traces it origins back to the founding of the Medical College of Louisiana, the Deep South’s first medical school, in 1834.

  • UPTOWN CAMPUS LARGE GROUP WALKING TOUR Hello, and Welcome to Tulane University! This Is an Abridged Tour Script Written Specifically for Large Groups Visiting Campus
    UPTOWN CAMPUS LARGE GROUP WALKING TOUR Hello, and welcome to Tulane University! This is an abridged tour script written specifically for large groups visiting campus. Please begin your tour at Gibson Hall (#1), the location of the Office of Undergraduate Admission. This tour will end at the Lavin-Bernick Center for University Life, or LBC (#29). Throughout your tour, you’ll find building names followed by numbers which correspond to those on our campus map. Enjoy your visit! History and Makeup of Tulane University Tulane was founded in 1834 as the Medical College of Louisiana in an effort to address the recent epidemics of Yellow Fever. In 1884, New Jersey merchant Paul Tulane donated over $1 million to endow a university “for the promotion and encouragement of intellectual, moral and industrial education.” He had made his fortune in New Orleans, and his gift expressed his appreciation for the city. Paul Tulane’s donation established the Tulane Educational Fund, which today has grown to more than $1 billion. Subsequently, the Medical College of Louisiana changed its name to the Tulane University of Louisiana. Tulane University is now comprised of 10 schools, most of which are on the Uptown Campus, with the exception of the School of Medicine, the School of Public Health & Tropical Medicine, and the School of Social Work, which are located downtown at Tulane’s original campus in the New Orleans BioDistrict. Tulane undergraduates – while all members of Newcomb-Tulane Undergraduate College – study across 5 schools: Architecture, Business, Liberal Arts, Public Health, and Science & Engineering. As you walk through campus, you’ll find a mix of both old and new buildings.
