Graduate Education in a Liberal Arts Environment
Graduate education at Bryn Mawr was part of the founding mission of the College. Established in 1885, Bryn Mawr College takes pride in being the first institution in the U.S. to provide women a graduate education culminating in a Ph.D. Since 1931, graduate enrollment has been co-educational and today embraces inclusivity as one of its core values. Students in Graduate School of Arts and Sciences pursue research in graduate programs of international reputation. Bryn Mawr surpasses traditional models of graduate education in its attention to the unique needs of individual students and its commitment to developing a broadly trained community of scholars. The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences currently accepts students into Ph.D. programs in Chemistry; Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology; Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies; History of Art; Mathematics; and Physics.
A hallmark of graduate studies at Bryn Mawr College is interdisciplinary collaboration among its two graduate groups. Since 2000, the award-winning Graduate Group in Archaeology, Classics, and History of Art is a unique collaboration across these departments. The Graduate Group in Science and Mathematics fosters interdisciplinary thinking across the departments of Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics with an eye to professional development and innovative research.
