The Tulane University School of Science and Engineering combines the very best of a top tier research university with a strong commitment to high quality undergraduate education. Our faculty, who conduct research at the forefront of their disciplines, offer outstanding degree programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels in the areas of behavioral science, biological science and engineering, chemical science and engineering, earth and ecological science, mathematics and computational science, and physical and materials science. The rich tradition of excellence, the personal attention afforded to students at all levels, the intellectual environment of a highly ranked research university, and the setting in picturesque Uptown New Orleans, one of America’s most unique cities, make the Tulane University School of Science and Engineering a truly exceptional experience.

John Dane III has waited a lifetime for his shot at the Olympics. At 58 and four decades after setting his goal, the Tulane civil engineering graduate finally got his chance to represent the United States at the 2008 Summer Olympics in China. Dane, who holds master’s (1972) and doctorate (1975) degrees from Tulane, is the oldest member of this year’s U.S. Olympic Team. He joined son-in-law Austin Perry, 30, for a weeklong set of racing competitions in the Star sailboat event in Qingdao, about 400 miles east of Beijing. A sentimental favorite, the pair’s search for gold came to a halt on Wednesday (Aug. 20) as they finished in 11th place after 10 preliminary races, edged out of the 10-boat cutoff. Their final race ended in fourth place... more * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Grand Prespectives
