Message from the DeanThe paths of human possibility for students, asthey create and recreate their lives, make thisan exciting time for the Graduate School ofArts and Science at New York University. As advocatesfor advanced inquiry and creativity, we greatly prizethe curious and exceptionally competent student.We value this moment to introduce studentsand others to the intellectual vision of the GraduateSchool and the programs and faculty that embodythat vision. The bulletin’s offerings demonstrate thatgraduate schools are the intellectual nerve center ofthe modern university. Graduate schools makegroundbreaking discoveries, investigate ideas old andnew, and prepare the next generation of scholars,researchers, thinkers, and teachers. As a matter offact, New York University was a pioneer in graduate education. In 1866, New York Universitybecame the second university in the United States to offer an earned doctorate. In 1886, it formally opened a graduate division. Today, the Graduate School of Arts and Science (GSAS)houses 45 programs that offer doctoral and master’s degrees and enrolls 4,100 students annually. The pioneering continues.As we chart the course of our Graduate School for a new century, we must fuse the strengthsof today with a vision of tomorrow’s possibilities. To achieve this fusion, GSAS calls on the abundant creative energies of New York City. Even more important, the Graduate School draws on theextraordinary New York University faculty to work with students to become intellectual leaders—no matter what career they might eventually choose. Graduate education depends first and foremost on an institution’s faculty and students, on the brains that power the school.Buoyed by its city, rooted in its faculty, the Graduate School of Arts and Science sharesthis bulletin with those who seek a range of graduate degrees, a balance of disciplinary andinterdisciplinary work, and the core values of intellectual communities: rigorous inquiry, lifelong discovery of ideas, and a commitment to the ethics of scholarship.Sincerely,Catharine R. StimpsonDean, Graduate School of Arts and Science

Guided by MacCracken’svision, New York University becamethe second university in America toaward a Ph.D. on the basis of academicperformance and examination.In addition to the emphasis onexcellence in research, MacCrackenrecognized the urban environment asboth source and inspiration for academic life. He believed that theUniversity’s best interests lay in itsinteractions with the city. By the early1900s, the Graduate School had introduced courses concerned with majorglobal issues, and the curriculumreflected movement toward progressivevalues.MacCracken’s new vision of graduate training attracted ever-growingnumbers of young women and men todoctoral programs. The first femalegraduate students entered theUniversity in 1888. Today, womenconstitute over half of the 4,100 master’s and Ph.D. graduate studentsWashington Square by Fernand Harvey Lungren (c.1890).6 H I S T O R YO FT H EG R A D U A T Eenrolled in 45 departments, institutes,programs, and interdisciplinaryresearch areas.Mirroring the cultural diversity ofNew York City, the Graduate Schoolof Arts and Science is an urban,diverse, and internationally focusedmajor research center, with studentsfrom more than 100 countries.
