School of Science & Engineering

Tulane School of Science and Engineering’s mission is to provide outstanding opportunities for learning and discovery in science and engineering and to foster an environment that is student focused, research intensive, interdisciplinary, entrepreneurial, and responsive to the needs of the community.

The School of Science and Engineering (SSE)’s commitment to collaboration and discovery is right in our name. By re-envisioning the traditionally divided fields of science and engineering as a continuum, we are able to combine our assets in both, building an environment for innovation and discovery that is even greater than its powerful components. We leverage our strengths to cultivate results-focused thinking and enable revolutionary solutions to some of the world’s most vexing challenges.

SSE 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. SSE generates millions in research dollars for the University, champions undergraduate research opportunities, and annually graduates the largest number of doctoral students at Tulane.
