OFFICE OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES
Welcome to the Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies

Welcome and CoVid-19 Update

Welcome to the Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (OGPS) at Tulane University! OGPS advances graduate education and enhances postdoctoral training through program oversight, policy development, and implementation of focused activities. OGPS is part of the Office of Academic Affairs.

Due to CoVid-19 and Tulane University's policy of de-concentration, we are working remotely at this time. Email is the best way to reach us, but we are available for phone calls and some video conferencing.

If you have general questions, please send them to ogps@tulane.edu

If you have questions regarding career or academic advising, please contact Briana Mohan at bmohan@tulane.edu

If you have questions regarding awards, grants, or other programs managed by OGPS, please contact Jennifer O'Brien-Brown at jobrien2@tulane.edu

 

Thank you, and take care!
