Feature Stories
We've just closed out a fantastic yearlong celebration highlighting the School’s 150-year history of inquiry, innovation, and impact. The occasion gave us the opportunity not only to ref lect on our past, but also to imagine the future of Harvard Griffin GSAS. Along those lines, the GSAS Admissions and Graduate Education working group, which I mentioned in the last issue of Colloquy, has released its final report and is currently in the last stages of review with faculty and students. Our recommendations on advising aim to promote more structure and clearer expectations on all sides creating a more effective relationship in which students can do their best work. Additional recommendations on employment outcomes encourage graduate programs to foster supportive and broad-ranging conversations about career options, urging them to provide students with access to advice on careers both inside and outside of academia. Sections on the scale and strength of the academic program and on equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging are also included.

Help Them Discover New Frontiers
Curiosity drives Nazli Ugur Koyluoglu. An inaugural member of Harvard’s PhD program in quantum science and engineering, she is fascinated by the unknown possibilities at the intersection of quantum information and many-body physics. “These fields are ever growing and ever intertwining to show us new ways of thinking about quantum physics and applications,” she says. “It’s an exploratory field where I can think about exciting questions that contribute to advancing quantum science and technologies—areas that are already interesting to me, just out of pure curiosity.”
