Harvard's SEAS core tenets create a fertile and supportive environment for exploration and learning. These include educating broad-minded students; interdisciplinary research; integration across disciplines; and balancing theory, experimentation, and practice. SEAS therefore is designed to be nimble and multidisciplinary, connected to the professional schools, and directed toward discovery, innovation and impact on society.
