Walking Tours

2009 Fall Tour Schedule

Engineering tours are NOT offered from August 6th to August 23rd.*

The Fall engineering tour schedule begins on Monday, August 24th, and tours are offered Monday through Friday @ 11:30 am (please see holiday schedule below for the dates engineering tours are not offered). Tours are NOT offered on Saturday or Sunday, and are only offered at 11:30 a.m. on Monday through Friday.

Reservations are necessary. If you would like to sign up for a tour, send an email at least 48 hours in advance to gct2@duke.edu, along with the number in your party. The Pratt tour schedule allows visitors the opportunity to attend both the University tour on Monday through Friday, as well as the Pratt tour--which lasts approximately 60 minutes. Our tours showcase Pratt's newest facilities, typical labs and classrooms, as well as cover information about the various opportunities available to engineering students. Please note, our tour guide is not equipped to answer questions about financial aid, admissions requirements, etc. Those questions should be directed to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.

All tours begin in the 2nd floor lobby of the Teer building (FYI, the ground level main entrance of Teer is the 2nd floor). You may park in the visitor parking section of the Bryan Center PGIV Parking Garage. Print out these directions to take with you.

Because we rely on the expertise of our students as tour guides, tours will NOT be taking place on the following dates:

• August 6th through August 23rd (end of Summer Session 2, Finals, Interim, and Freshman Orientation)*
• Friday, October 2nd through Tuesday, October 6th (Fall Break, tours will resume on Wednesday, October 7th)
• Wednesday, November 25th through Friday, November 27th (Thanksgiving Holiday, tours will resume on Monday, November 30th)
