## This is Undergraduate Science Education

Welcome faculty, students and parents. The Office of Science Education brings you resources for improving undergraduate science education at Harvard for both the Physical Sciences and the Life Sciences Concentration Cluster, under the support and direction of [The Division of Science](http://science.fas.harvard.edu/) which fosters learning and collaboration cross disciplines. You can explore the department websites (linked below) to discover the diverse range of concentrations available within the Life Sciences and Physical Sciences.



 

  [### Undergraduate Education in the LIFE SCIENCES

 ](/concentrations)The [Life Sciences Concentration Cluster](/concentrations) **consists of nine concentrations with common introductory foundation courses.** We aim to bring you all of the flexibility and expansive undergraduate science education experience and access you expect here at Harvard. You can find the [Life Sciences Advising Booklet here](/files/lifesci/files/reduced_size_combiner_booklet_quotes_7.15.2021.pdf) and check out this [**video overview of the Life Sciences options.**](https://youtu.be/ny4v5q4PG04).

  [### Undergraduate Education in the PHYSICAL SCIENCES

 ](/physical-sciences)**The Physical Sciences** has extraordinary resources for study and research, with ample opportunity for collaboration between disciplines. Students typically begin their study either with interdisciplinary courses in the [Physical Sciences](https://www.physics.harvard.edu/) sequence or with foundational courses in one of the relevant departments. As you continue in the Physical Sciences, courses become concentration focused.
