In most departments, programs are designed for each graduate student according to individual interests, preparation and experience, and a student's program may cross departmental lines. The work is organized in the form ofseminars, graduate courses and individual supervised study. Founded in 1885, the Bryn Mawr Graduate School was the first graduate school for women in the United States. Since 1931 both men and women have been admitted. In 1970 the Graduate School ofArts and Sciences and the Graduate School ofSocial Work and Social Research were organized as two distinct schools. Today, the total student enrollment in the Graduate School ofArts and Sciences is approximately 210. Students are accepted for graduate work leading to either or both the Master ofArts and Doctor ofPhilosophy in the following departments or programs: Biochemistry Biology Chemistry Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology Classical Languages Classical Studies Clinical Developmental and School Psychology Geology Greek, Latin and Ancient History Greek Studies History ofArt Mathematics Neural and Behavioral Sciences Physics Roman Studies Russian In French, students are accepted for graduate work leading to the Master ofArts only.
