The Astrophysics BS at Harvard pairs rigorous physics and mathematics with hands-on observation at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Students analyze data from space telescopes, model stellar evolution, and design instrumentation projects. Research apprenticeships and summer observing runs in Hawaii prepare graduates for doctoral study and careers in aerospace, AI, and science communication.
