What are the individual TIDES?
We have an exciting array of over 80 TIDES topics.. Because the topics are interdisciplinary, the content crosses over traditional academic distinctions and divisions, which makes TIDES more interesting and fun for students and faculty alike. There are topics on music, science, literature, architecture, religion, history, popular culture, art and many with combinations of subjects. We are fortunate to have offerings from professors from a variety of the university’s schools and colleges from the School of Business to the School of Architecture to the School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. Many TIDES classes examine some aspect of New Orleans culture, and most utilize the resources of New Orleans to illustrate local examples of a wide range of topics.
