Dean's Office
Message from the Dean
Welcome.
The SEAS community connects advances in research and innovations in engineering and technology with science, the humanities, and areas such as business, medicine, public health, and law.
I think of SEAS as more than just an exceptional place to learn and conduct research.
It is a bridge to the incredible intellectual resources of one of the world’s great universities.
SEAS is an organization free of traditional departments and increasingly connected to all parts of Harvard.
Cultivated by such a creative environment, students and researchers enjoy the freedom to do better science, work across disciplines, be more innovative, become entrepreneurs, and take risks—all with the aim of making a real difference in the world.
I am eager to build upon what this exceptional institution already does so well: providing a lively environment for learning and discovery, sharing diverse thinking and expertise across the globe, and fostering the next generation of leaders, who understand the complexities of technology and society, to meet the challenges of the 21st century.
Moving forward, there are four cornerstones that will guide us: SEAS is financially well-positioned in this challenging environment; SEAS is vital to the mission of Harvard and is making a global impact; SEAS has the right foundation to realize its full potential; and most important, having a strong SEAS community is ESSENTIAL to our success.
Whether you
are a gadget guru, a theory maven, or just plain curious about the
increasingly fascinating role that science and engineering play in our
lives, I encourage you to explore with us.
Warm regards,
Cherry A. Murray
