Thomas Oliver Harding (born 5 January 1850) was Senior Wrangler at Cambridge University in 1873.

Harding was the son of the Reverend Thomas Harding, a Wesleyan minister, of Whitehaven.[1] He received his early education at Kingswood Wesleyan School near Bath,[2] followed by studies at King's College London, and then at Trinity College Cambridge where he took the Mathematical Tripos.[4] The College awarded him the senior mathematical minor scholarship, and elected him to a foundation scholarship in 1871.[2] He was a first-class prizeman in 1870, 1871 and 1872, graduating as Senior Wrangler in 1873[2] and receiving his MA in 1876.[4]

Harding was elected to the Cambridge Apostles in 1872, and as an undergraduate proved a keen oarsman and swimmer.[3] After graduation he became a schoolmaster at Marlborough College,[4] and (according to one source) a barrister.[5]

He died in 1896.[5]
