Graduate and Professional Students

As the future scholars and leaders within the academy and beyond, we recognize that graduate and professional students are a unique population within the University. Graduate and professional students at Harvard University come from diverse backgrounds and bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to their academic work. We are also cognizant that there are many unique needs and concerns within this population. There is no one-size-fits-all set of resources to address these needs and concerns, but each school provides a wide array of resources to assist graduate and professional students as they encounter different challenges and opportunities throughout their training at Harvard. This section provides information on some of these resources, including fellowhips, scholarships, research and teaching opportunities, social and academic networking opportunities, as well as other resources designed specifically to address the particular concerns of graduate and professional students.
