The Tulane University School of Professional Advancement (SoPA)[1] is a school at Tulane University that offers 9 undergraduate degree programs, 9 master’s degree programs, 16 graduate certificates, and 8 post-baccalaureate certificates,[2] many of which can be completed online.[3]

The School of Professional Advancement has two campuses.[4] The two locations are in Greater New Orleans, including one at the Tulane University campus in the Uptown neighborhood of New Orleans and a location in Elmwood, Louisiana.[5]

The first continuing education classes available through Tulane University were offered in 1884.[6] In 2006, the school was renamed from University College to the School of Continuing Studies as part of a university-wide renewal plan in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.[7] On March 17, 2017, the school was again relaunched as the School of Professional Advancement.[8]

Dr. Suri Duitch serves as the dean of the school and vice president for academic innovation at Tulane University.[9]
