Programs at ByWater
Our programs are centered around building scholarly communities of practice that address the three pillars of ThrivingByWater.
ByWater Institute programs and initiatives support interdisciplinary collaboration across the University. As a university-wide institute in the Office of Research, we support the scholarly and research pursuits of faculty, staff, and trainees.
BWI Scholars and Fellows
Tulane faculty and research staff are invited to participate as ByWater Institute Scholars and faculty can apply for funding to further mutually beneficial scholarship through the BWI fellowship program.
Coastal Convenings
We host large transdisciplinary meetings to develop research programs and build lasting collaborations among Tulane scholars.
A Studio in the Woods
A Studio in the Woods is one of the leading artistic and academic residency programs in the Gulf South region.
Science Communication
Through our internal team’s work and dissemination of best practices, we make science communication a priority. Scholarship must be shared widely and its implications should be understood by the communities it impacts.
Junior Faculty Working Groups
Coming soon! We will develop a program for junior faculty at Tulane to build their research and scholarship by leading interdisciplinary data synthesis working groups.
International Exchanges
Coming soon! We will facilitate and fund research exchanges for graduate students at Tulane and international partner institutions.
Call For Proposals!
