Students from other countries must provide proof of an excellent command of spoken and written English. To be eligible for admission, applicants must also show evidence of distinguished academic work in the field or closely related fields, or distinguished work in the intended area of concentration. Applications from minorities are particularly welcome.
All applicants are required to indicate a proposed major subject of study at the time of initial application. These proposed areas of study should be congruent with the interests and expertise of at least one member of the PhD Standing Committee listed below.
The results of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), and other supporting documents specified in the
are also required parts of the application.
Academic Residence
Two years of full-time study while registered in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences are required.
Program of Study
Course information may be found in the
offered by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences as well as in the course catalogues published by Harvard&s other professional schools, including the official catalog of the Graduate School of Design. These publications are available online.
Students are expected to prepare in each of the following areas:
(1) General Knowledge of the Field: The PhD is an academic degree, but holders of the PhD in the design fields may be interacting with scholars and professionals in other fields. The PhD program prepares its graduates for teaching in a range of institutions of higher education (including liberal art colleges, research universities, and professional schools). Therefore, in addition to academic requirements, it is expected that every PhD student possess general knowledge of the basic skills of architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design. (2) Major Subject: The interfaculty and interdisciplinary structure of the program requires that students cross intellectual boundaries. All students must master a major area of their respective field, including the historical development and current state of research on the subject. In addition, every student must demonstrate competence in the methods of inquiry used for research in his or her major subject. (3) Methods: All students must achieve a thorough grounding in the theory and methods of an additional humanistic or social scientific discipline related to their major subject, such as the history of art, history, economics, literature, philosophy, political science, sociology, technology, or the history of science equivalent to at least one year of full-time graduate study. (4) Languages: Candidates for the PhD degree must normally have a reading knowledge of at least one language other than English in which there is broad and important literature related to their field or major subject. Every student must have a level of quantitative skills appropriate for research in the major subject.
Master of Arts (AM)
The department does not admit candidates for a terminal AM degree. PhD candidates, after having completed eight half-courses with satisfactory grades, may apply for a master&s degree. The degree may also be offered to students unable to complete the PhD.
The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences requires that all students maintain an average of B or better in each year of graduate study. All incomplete grades must be removed before the end of the next regular term.
Faculty Advisor and Student&s Graduate Committee
The chair of the PhD committee will assign a faculty member as the student&s advisor at the time of registration in the program. This advisor will assist in planning the student&s academic program. In addition, not fewer than two faculty members, appointed by the chair in consultation with the student, will be made available for advising regarding the general examination, prospectus, and the dissertation.
General Examination, Prospectus Defense and&Dissertation
Students are expected to take the general examination in the fifth term of residence, and no later than one year after completion of the required coursework. The examination, which is given only during the fall and spring terms of the academic year, tests the student&s mastery of the general field of scholarship, specific interpretive problems within that field, and their ability to research and write a dissertation.
At least two months prior to the date of the examination, the student will meet regularly with the examination committee and will formulate a proposal describing the general and specific fields to be covered in the examination as well as possible examination questions.
The examination comprises a major and minor field. The general field is typically a broad area of history and theory of architecture, landscape architecture, or urban planning (for example, &modern architecture from 1750 to the present&). The specific field is a narrower area of study chosen by the student and subje in principle it should comprise a coherent and clearly defined area of scholarly inquiry that may be interdisciplinary in nature.
The examination will normally consist of two or three written essays, one in the general field (eight hours) and one or two in the specific field. Within one week of the written examination, the student and the examination committee will meet to evaluate the written essays and conduct an oral examination.
At the end of the sixth semester and after the general examination has been completed, the student will write and present their dissertation prospectus to their chosen dissertation committee. The committee will conduct an oral examination of the dissertation proposal. The purpose is to provide a formal occasion to discuss and gain approval of the dissertation topic.
Students whose performance on any part of the examination and prospectus defense is not satisfactory will be given one opportunity to repeat all or part of it.
Dissertation
The dissertation will be directed by a committee consisting of one primary advisor and at least two secondary advisors or readers.
Two readers must be from the Faculty of Arts and Sciences or the Standing C one reader will normally have expertise in the minor field and one or more readers must be from the Graduate School of Design faculty.&
Students are normally expected to complete the program (including defense and approval of the dissertation) within seven years of admission. Students who require more than five years to complete the dissertation after passing the General Examination must petition the Standing Committee in order to extend their time.
The completed manuscript of the dissertation must be submitted to the director and readers no less than six weeks before the formal defense. The degree recommendation of the dissertation committee is due at the Registrar&s Office per its assigned completion deadlines. The final copy of the dissertation must conform to the requirements described in .
