Degree programs
In keeping with our emphasis on broad-minded learning we’ve designed programs and courses that cater to students at multiple levels and fully incorporate laboratory research.
With the arrival of Dean Cherry A. Murray, SEAS has undertaken an ambitious strategic planning process designed primarily to further enhance the school's educational programs.
Dean Murray believes in educating “T-shaped” individuals, or those who have deep knowledge in a discipline but are able to collaborate across the boundaries of disciplines.
Concentrations and Secondary Fields
-
Applied Mathematics (A.B., A.B./S.M., Secondary Field in Mathematical Sciences)
“Math will rock your world.” That sentence recently appeared on the cover of BusinessWeek magazine. The math rocking the world is applied mathematics. Areas of focus include biological sciences, economics, engineering, and computer science, among others.
-
Biomedical Engineering (A.B.; A.B./S.M.)
In the Fall 2010 semester, Harvard University launched a new concentration at the intersection of the engineering school and the life sciences cluster, Biomedical Engineering.
-
Computer Science (A.B., A.B./S.M., Secondary Field)
The answers to today’s big questions—whether in engineering, physics, biology, or economics—inevitably have computation at their core. Areas of focus include software, graphics, e-commerce, artificial intelligence, networks, parallel and distributed systems, algorithms, and theory.
-
Electrical Engineering (S.B.) - new for 2012
The Electrical Engineering (EE) concentration, which will debut in the Fall of 2012, helps to solidify a basic underlying scientific and engineering principles and allows students to hone life-long skills to question, analyze, and develop solutions to all of the challenges that they and the world will face. The S.B. degree requires 20 courses and provides in-depth study on a broad scope of topics.
-
Engineering Sciences (A.B.; A.B./S.M.; S.B.)
Engineering is about building bridges—but in ways you might not expect. Breakthroughs in basic research and innovative technologies create bridges to every area in the sciences. Areas of focus include biomedical sciences and engineering, electrical engineering and computer science, engineering physics, environmental sciences and engineering, and mechanical and materials sciences and engineering.
-
Mechanical Engineering (S.B.) - new for 2012
The Mechanical Engineering (ME) concentration, which will debut in the Fall of 2012, helps to solidify a basic underlying scientific and engineering principles and allows students to hone life-long skills to question, analyze, and develop solutions to all of the challenges that they and the world will face. The S.B. degree requires 20 courses and provides in-depth study on a broad scope of topics.
