Tufts University is a private research university in Medford and Somerville, Massachusetts. It was founded in 1852 as Tufts College by Christian universalists who sought to provide a nonsectarian institution of higher learning.
Tufts remained a small liberal arts college until the 1970s, when it transformed into a large research university offering several doctorates. It is classified among “R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity” and is a member of the Association of American Universities, which emphasizes strong academic research.
Tufts alumni and affiliates include ten Nobel Prize laureates, twelve Pulitzer Prize winners, five state governors, two U.S. Senators, four Emmy Award winners, three Academy Award winners, and National Academy members. Tufts has also graduated four Rhodes Scholars, five Marshall Scholars, five Truman Scholars, and five Goldwater scholars.
