About
Harvard’s Committee on African Studies (CAS) is the umbrella organization for all things Africa-related at Harvard University. In 2010 CAS became a National Resource Center for African Studies through the United States Department of Education.
The Committee serves as an intellectual hub, connecting students, faculty, and members of the wider Africanist community with shared interests through seminars, workshops and conferences throughout the academic year. CAS also funds research and travel in Africa through our grants and internships programs. For more information about the Committee’s activities, please visit our events calendar. Students interested in pursuing a B.A. or a Ph.D. in African Studies should contact the Department of African and African American Studies.
