Dr. Yoram Neumann and Dr. Edith Neumann established TUI in 1998 where it was the first university in the world to offer a regionally accredited doctorate program online with no residency requirements. It was also attractive to government and military students. Drs. Neumann led TUI for 11 years from 1998 to 2009. During their time, 14,000 students graduated and the university built a catalog of more than 50,000 courses. In 2007, TUI was sold to a private equity group. Since 2000, the Touro College & University System grew to include international sites in Paris and Berlin, as well as coastal campuses in Los Angeles and Miami.
