Welcome from President Fitts


Tulane University is uniquely suited to teach and empower the next generation of leaders. Here, across our 10 schools, we are preparing a student body of nearly 14,000 to be nimble thinkers, adept at toggling between disciplines and fields to solve problems. We are teaching the value of public service through our deep engagement with the incredible city of New Orleans, of which Tulane will always be inextricably intertwined. Every day, our graduates are creatively engineering solutions to the most pressing global challenges and difficulties facing the 21st century.

Truly, the entire world is going Green.

And we continue to grow, expanding our academic offerings at our uptown and downtown campuses in order to provide a premier academic experience for our student body. We are also taking ambitious steps to ensure Tulane benefits from a secure and robust financial future. From the Brain Institute to the River and Coastal Center, our students benefit from cutting edge real-world research opportunities to apply the skills and theories they learn in the classroom.
