Student review [#36801] for Liberal Arts
at Harvard University

“Pros: flexibility to decide research / travel / study projects abroad, availability of funds for graduates, encouragement of administrative staff and teachers, opportunity to be advised together with other teachers, high quality teaching, numerous resources and collaborations among other schools and workshops allow even more resources, great location, a huge amount of social activities, general happiness within the department. My department truly supports their graduating students and provides resources for everything we need. Cons: Sometimes too much freedom can ruin business and it depends on your advisor – organizing your time effectively is key to getting things done. Classes can take a long time, but they are necessary … it just means that research should be postponed or delayed, other times it should be done.There are really no drawbacks to the Department. The workload is high, but pleasant. The faculty challenges you but is very encouraging. It’s a great environment.”
