The Overview of Harvard University Finances course is designed to give a better understanding of Harvard’s financial model, including (1) the University’s revenue and expenditures mix, (2) how our Schools and Units interact on a financial level, and (3) how national trends and external forces on higher education are impacting Harvard. The ultimate goal of this course is to equip University citizens with a broad financial and economic context to be good stewards of Harvard’s resources.
