Since opening in 2011, TUMO has helped over 10K+ students chart their growth. In multiple locations, including a new center in Paris, TUMO members work with over 400 computer workstations packed with industry standard software, 100 iPads, 3D printers, musical keyboards, and cameras to take charge of their own learning at the intersection of technology and design. In 2016, French magazine We Demain ranked TUMO at the top of the Ten Best Schools worldwide, beating the Steve Jobs School and the AltSchool of Silicon Valley.

"The two weeks at TUMO was both an intellectual and cultural journey that was the highlight of my sophomore year. Being able to explore the breathtaking landscapes of Yerevan and excursions to the mountainous regions of Northern Armenia was an additional bonus of the two weeks with TUMO that matched my adventurous spirit.
I was able to channel my passion for data science and engage with students who matched that level of energy I brought to the workshop, igniting an enriching two weeks filled with laughs, learning, and lasting memories!"
