#  Curricular Practical Training (CPT) Policies 

 



Curricular Practical Training (CPT) is a type of employment authorization that is applicable to a varying set of opportunities across Harvard schools.

Eligibility varies, but to be considered CPT, the relevant work experience must not only be related to the student's major field of study and be an integral part of an established curriculum.
