A Message From the Dean

The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences is where scholarship and innovation meet, where ideas are challenged and theories developed, where new knowledge is created, and where scholars emerge.

If you are interested in graduate study at Harvard, I urge you to visit the Admissions section of this Website and learn about our many programs. GSAS offers the PhD or AM in 57 departments or divisions across all disciplines. Although most of these degrees are administered within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, many are interfaculty and link the Graduate School and its students with other Harvard schools, such as the Law School, Medical School, School of Business Administration, and School of Public Health.

If you are a student with us, I hope that you will keep us apprised as to how we can continue to help guide your educational and professional development.

If you are an alumna or alumnus, we hope you’ll keep in touch with us and that we’ll see you at one of our many alumni events.

GSAS is a place of intellectual excitement and collegiality. The work that goes on here reaches across disciplinary boundaries as well—our economists work with business leaders, our biologists work with clinicians, our historians work with lawyers.

We are proud of our students, faculty, and alumni, who are so much a part of this dynamic global community of thinkers, scholars, and leaders.
