Ph.D. Programs

The School of Science and Engineering at Tulane University is deeply committed to doctoral education. More than 300 PhD students engage in rigorous, high-impact research, with nearly all supported through assistantships or fellowships. Working closely with over 120 faculty mentors, students benefit from excellent facilities and a close-knit academic community that actively fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. This collaborative spirit is evident across the diverse research programs led by our faculty, where ideas move fluidly across disciplines to address complex, real-world challenges.
