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
This program for junior faculty at Tulane builds their data synthesis and collaboration skills. We are excited to help equip the next generation of scholars with the tools they need to make a lasting impact.
International Exchanges
We facilitate and fund research exchanges for graduate students at Tulane and international partner institutions. By creating opportunities for scholars to work together across borders, we're fostering a global community of collaboration and innovation.
