Graduate Schools

Dartmouth has graduate programs in the arts and sciences as well professional programs in medicine, engineering, and business.

Although the first Dartmouth doctorate was awarded in classics in 1885, modern doctoral programs in the Arts and Sciences began in 1960, and now 600 students study in Arts and Sciences graduate programs. Most Arts and Sciences graduate students receive financial assistance. Graduate students received an estimated $9.5 million in stipends, fellowships, grants and other stupport. The average stipend for 2006-07 is $16,200 for the academic year or $21,600 for the 12-month year. Scholarship awards normally cover full tuition. For more information see, Graduate Arts & Sciences.

Professional programs at Dartmouth date back to 1797 with the founding of Dartmouth Medical School, the nation's fourth-oldest medical school. The Thayer School of Engineering, founded in 1867, comprises both the undergraduate Department of Engineering Sciences and a professional school with degrees through the doctorate. The Tuck School of Business, established in 1900 as the first graduate school of management, awards the master of business administration degree.
