The graduate mathematics program at Harvard is designed for students who hope to become research mathematicians and show definite promise in this direction. Once the student has demonstrated a command of basic mathematical concepts by passing the qualifying examination, the emphasis is on getting to the frontiers of some field by independent reading, advanced courses, and seminars.

The Cambridge area is one of the most active centers of mathematics in the world. Harvard, Brandeis, MIT, and Northeastern have an especially close association in mathematics, sharing several seminars and a weekly colloquium.

The master of arts degree is not a prerequisite for the PhD, but is often obtained by students on their way to a doctorate. However, applicants are not accepted for the terminal master of arts in mathematics. The formal requirements are a minimum academic residence of one year, eight half-courses in mathematics at 100 or 200 level, with at least four at the 200 level; a reading knowledge of one of three languages—French, German, or Russian—is also required.
