What Degrees and Programs Does The University of Tulsa Offer?
Updated
The University of Tulsa (UTulsa) organizes its academics into six broad areas named on its site: social and natural sciences; arts and humanities; engineering and technology; business; health care; and law. Within those areas, the university separates its offerings into four paths — undergraduate majors, graduate programs, the law school, and online programs — and points prospective students to its "Explore Degrees" section as the starting point for finding a specific program.
The four degree paths
| Path | What it covers | Where to start |
|---|---|---|
| Undergraduate majors | Bachelor's-level study across the six academic areas | "Explore Degrees" → Undergraduate Majors |
| Graduate programs | Master's and doctoral-level study | "Explore Degrees" → Graduate Programs |
| Law School | Legal education, listed as its own path | "Explore Degrees" → Law School |
| Online Programs | Degree study delivered online | "Explore Degrees" → Online Programs |
The site presents these as distinct entry points rather than a single list, so the right one depends on the level you're aiming for. If you're undecided, the undergraduate majors route is the broadest starting point; if you already know you want a graduate credential or a law degree, go directly to that path.
Academic areas at a glance
UTulsa describes programs spanning:
- Social and natural sciences
- Arts and humanities
- Engineering and technology
- Business
- Health care
- Law
These are the categories the university itself uses to describe its academic range. They are broad groupings, not a list of individual majors — the specific majors, minors, concentrations, and degree requirements live on the university's official program pages.
How to find a specific program
- Go to the "Explore Degrees" section on utulsa.edu.
- Choose the path that matches your goal: undergraduate majors, graduate programs, law school, or online programs.
- Open the individual program page to confirm the degree awarded, required courses, and any admission conditions.
The site also links to Bulletins and Study Resources & Centers, which are the places to check for catalog-level detail such as course requirements and academic policies.
What to confirm before applying
The homepage gives you the shape of the academic offering, not the fine print. Before you commit to a program, verify on the official pages:
- The exact degree name and level (BA, BS, MA, MS, PhD, JD, etc.)
- Admission requirements and deadlines for that specific program
- Whether the program is offered on campus, online, or both
- Any prerequisites or background expected for entry
UTulsa also states that it is recognized among the nation's Top 75 private research universities in the 2027 U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges rankings and describes itself as Oklahoma's No. 1 best value and the most affordable private research university in the heartland. Those are the university's own characterizations of its standing and cost positioning; treat them as claims to check against current official sources if cost or ranking matters to your decision.
A practical next step
If your goal is to judge fit, start with the "Explore Degrees" section, pick the path matching your level, and shortlist two or three programs. Then open each program page and compare degree requirements, delivery format, and admission conditions side by side. That comparison — not the category list alone — is what tells you whether UTulsa offers the specific credential you're after.
