The Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences connects the work of its most groundbreaking students, faculty, and alumni with Harvard's long tradition of excellence. Its mission is to identify and attract the most promising students, forming a dynamic and diverse community, and to shape them into visionary scholars, innovative educators, and creative leaders. In doing so, the School aims to provide global leadership and innovation in graduate education.
In 1872, Harvard University introduced new requirements for graduate study, establishing what was then known as the Graduate Department with an initial enrollment of 28 students. Now known as the Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the School has grown to include nearly 5,000 students across 57 graduate programs in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering, marking its 150th anniversary in 2023.
Since its founding in 1872, the School has evolved into a hub of academic excellence, continually expanding its influence while embracing the ongoing challenge and opportunity of fostering a more inclusive academic future.
Graduate students are a driving force within the University, contributing innovative research, generating new knowledge, and collaborating closely with faculty and undergraduates.
Students connect with every Harvard School, whether pursuing a master’s or PhD, participating in joint programs like the JD/PhD with Harvard Law School, or engaging as fellows at the Harvard Radcliffe Institute.
Graduates have made significant global impact through groundbreaking discoveries and achievements, earning prestigious honors such as Nobel Prizes, MacArthur Fellowships, and Pulitzer Prizes.
