History of Science
|
|
|
In the history science program the methods of historical research are employed to explore the genesis and evolution of the sciences and to analyze the growth of science as part of the intellectual and social experience of humankind. Science is its subject and history its method. To pursue advanced work in the field, therefore, it is desirable to have some preliminary training in the natural and social sciences and in history.
Students in the doctoral program are eligible for financial support administered under the direction of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, as described in the application for admissions and in Financing Graduate Study. Harvard grants are awarded for the first and second years primarily on the basis of financial need as determined by the Graduate School at the time of application. Ordinarily, living stipend support is limited to the first two years, including summer support, and tuition grants are limited to five years. After the completion of two years in residence, candidates for the PhD degree history science ordinarily are eligible for appointments as teaching fellows in the history science to serve as tutors in the undergraduate program of history science. A candidate may also lead discussion sections in departmental courses and courses given under the Committee on the Core Program. In latter years, students become eligible for awards to support dissertation research and writing.
