Note: All prospective undergraduate students apply and are admitted to Harvard College. All prospective graduate students apply to HSEAS through the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
We are committed to supporting and celebrating individuals from all backgrounds, countries, and cultures.
Doing so gives us the ability to readily adapt, the creativity to come up with fresh ideas, the openness to connect with others, and the willingness to share knowledge and our excitement about pursuing it.
Our transition from the Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences to the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences in 2006-07 is a celebration of the renewal and growth engineering and applied sciences has experienced in recent years at Harvard.
At the same time, the new name reflects our progenitor, the Lawrence Scientific School, founded in 1847.
