Astronomy at Haverford

The astronomy major is a good fit for students who want an in-depth education in astronomy that can be applied to a range of careers, not just further study in astronomy. Our faculty work at the cutting edge of modern astronomy and cosmology, creating exceptional research opportunities for majors.

On Friday, April 28 Haverford's Strawbridge Observatory will hold a family-friendly public observing event in conjunction with the Philadelphia Science Festival's Citywide Star Party. Photo: Thom Carroll Photography.
