School Description

Provided by University of Tulsa

The University of Tulsa is a private, independent, doctoral-degree-granting institution whose mission reflects these core values: excellence in scholarship, dedication to free inquiry, integrity of character, and commitment to humanity.
The university achieves its mission by educating men and women of diverse backgrounds and cultures to

* become literate in the sciences, humanities, and arts;
* think critically, and write and speak clearly;
* succeed in their professions and careers;
* behave ethically in all aspects of their lives;
* welcome the responsibility of citizenship and service in a changing world; and
* acquire the skills and appetite for lifelong learning.

With a low student-to-faculty ratio, TU offers personalized attention and close interaction with faculty. Many junior- and senior-level classes have as few as 10 students. You'll most likely know the names of everyone in your classes. Even better, so will your professors.

By keeping a low student-to-faculty ratio, we've carefully fostered an environment that allows our faculty to be directly involved in our students' academic development.

Our graduate and professional programs are among the top in the nation, with faculty and resources that bring out the best in our students. TU also encourages lifelong learning through its continuing education classes, programs, and other services.

Personal attention to your needs and goals is the primary advantage to attending a small, private university as committed to personal growth as TU.

Like most college campuses, the phrase “Student Life” at TU refers to the wide array of programs, services, organizations, and activities available outside of the classrooms and laboratories that are designed to complement the academic component of your TU experience. The main goal of the staff members who work with students outside of the classroom is to assure the most positive student life experience possible. In fact we often say that’s the only reason we’re here – because we mean it! These staff members are a part of the University officially known as the division of Enrollment and Student Services. Welcome to Your World!

TU's 200-acre campus is located two miles east of downtown Tulsa, a metropolitan city with a population exceeding a half a million people. The city's remarkable cultural, technological, and economic resources nourish the University's mission and enrich its life, just as the University, in turn, enriches the city.

In its vibrant urban environment, The University of Tulsa offers a diversity of learning experiences, a balance between career preparation and liberal education, teaching, and research, and endeavors to instill in its students an understanding that stature as an individual and value as a member of society depend upon continual learning.

University of Tulsa

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

The University of Tulsa is a private university awarding bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It is currently ranked 83rd among doctoral degree granting universities in the nation by US News and World Report and is listed as one of the "Best 366 Colleges" by the Princeton Review. The university is historically affiliated with the Presbyterian Church USA.

History

The University of Tulsa was founded in Muskogee, Oklahoma, as the Presbyterian School for Indian Girls in 1882 under the leadership of Alice Mary Robertson, but was re-chartered as the Henry Kendall College in 1894 under the auspices of the Presbyterian Women's Board of Home Missions. In 1907 the college moved to its current site in Tulsa, Oklahoma. A university was formed in 1920 when the college merged with the proposed McFarlin College to become the University of Tulsa.

Academics

The University of Tulsa is noted for having one of the world's premier programs in petroleum engineering, and has distinguished programs in English, computer science, natural sciences, Clinical and I/O Psychology, and several engineering disciplines. The university also maintains a school of law, which is one of the few to specialize in Native American legal issues. The University of Tulsa College of Law Review ranks in the top 15% of most cited legal periodicals as ranked by Washington and Lee University.

The University has a strong undergraduate research program, evidenced by 44 students receiving Goldwater Scholarships since 1995. The Tulsa Undergraduate Research Challenge (TURC) allows undergraduates to conduct advanced research with the guidance of top TU professors.

Currently, there are six colleges, programs, and departments at the University of Tulsa:

  • Henry Kendall College of Arts & Sciences

TU is basically a good school. The education standard is pretty high, and most students who graduate from TU are generally able to find a job in their chosen field (maybe not in Tulsa, though). The primary disadvantage of TU is that it is expensive because it's a private school. They do offer some scholarships, but I'm not sure what they have for postgrad students. Hope this helps...
