A progressive graduate school firmly rooted in the traditional hallmarks of academic distinction, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences brings to bear the resources of Tufts University—a great research institution with a rigorous intellectual culture. The school offers students and faculty alike intimate educational experiences and opportunities to explore multidisciplinary approaches. Faculty advisers mentor self- directed students who, in turn, have the opportunity to teach some of the best undergraduates in the country. Here, our students follow their own passions to wherever they may lead.
