Mind / Brain / Behavior -- Interfaculty Initiative at Harvard University

MBB Governance and Staff        

MBB faculty and administrative directors report to the Provost's office, but are guided in their stewardship of MBB by a faculty Steering Committee. A Faculty of Arts and Sciences Standing Committee (link to fas catalog) is dedicated to oversight of the undergraduate program, and an External Advisory Board of Harvard alumnus and friends provides ongoing feedback on our programs and assists especially with fund-raising and external relations.
