Globalism, active citizenship and environmentalism are multidisciplinary themes that link over 60 academic programs in the School of Arts & Sciences and the School of Engineering, the University's two undergraduate programs. With a 7:1 student-faculty ratio and an average class size of 20, the undergraduate curriculum at Tufts is writing and discussion-intensive.Tufts prepares leaders who will address the great intellectual and social challenges of the new century, people who want to interpret new information and make a difference in people's lives. An emphasis on critical reasoning, a creative approach to problem-solving, and emotional and social intelligence enables students to question, appreciate, and understand information and trends in a fast-paced, multicultural environment. Tufts offers rigorous, cutting-edge programs in fields as diverse as international relations, biomedical engineering, community health, environmental studies, neuroscience and cognitive studies, to name a few. Liberal arts candidates gain broad academic proficiency as well as proficiency in second language while engineers are trained to be technically-skilled as well as highly literate as they examine the societal impact of technology.
