Graduate School of Arts and Sciences

Transformative Teaching, Research, and Service

Whether in the sciences, the arts, or the humanities, graduate education at Fordham shares a distinctive signature: a belief in the transformative power of inquiry for its own sake, an impatience with conventional academic boundaries and frameworks, and an insistence that change must move humanity forward.

Here, you will be part of an institution that believes knowledge becomes wisdom only when guided by moral principles, where:

• Faculty are approachable and caring, as well as distinguished scholars who manage tens of millions of dollars in grant awards and publish approximately 500 monographs, books, book chapters, and articles each year.
• You will have the opportunity to invest in others in ways that foster the development of skills that cannot be learned in the laboratory or library alone, including professional development workshops, professional conferences, and undergraduate teaching in your respective field of study.
