Charles Eliot, taking over at Harvard in 1869 at the age of 35, pioneered a break with the traditional curriculum. The usual course of studies at American universities emphasized classical and humanistic courses, classical languages, mathematics, ethics and rhetoric; and each institution prescribed a rigid program of required courses.

He renovated the Harvard medical and law schools, raising the requirements and lengthening the residence period, and again the Harvard model affected the other schools. Improved technical training in other professions accompanied the advances in medicine and law. Both state and private universities hastened to establish schools of architecture, engineering, education, journalism and business.
