Concentrations
In consultation with academic advisers, faculty, and others, students select a field of concentration in the third semester of their eight semester programme. Over the course of four years, about half of each student's courses are devoted to pursuing an academic interest in depth. Concentrations are the same as Majors at other colleges.

Here is a sample of some concentrations:

  • Anthropology
  • Applied Mathematics
  • Astrophysics
  • Engineering
  • Environmental Science and Public Policy
  • History and Science
  • Government
  • Music
  • Neurobiology
  • Slavic Languages & Literatures
  • History of Art & Architecture
  • Classics
  • Computer Science

The full listing of concentrations can be found here.

More information on concentrations and on Joint and Special Concentrations can be found on the advising site listed on the right hand side of this page.
