So you want to be an engineer. We like that. It tells us you're not afraid of taking on challenges—and there will be plenty. From building satellites and engineering bacteria to programming robots and learning ballroom dancing (who says engineers can't have fun?).

As a member of the College of Engineering, you'll be part of a close-knit community of scholars within one of the largest, most respected research universities in the world. This means you'll have more one-on-one access to your professors while enjoying the interdisciplinary opportunities only a school like BU can offer (that's where the ballroom dancing comes in). So if you're ready to tackle some of the world's most pressing problems—from providing clean water to Peru to developing more cost-effective solar energy—or if you're looking for a rigorous and rewarding graduate experience, we're ready to provide you with the skill set to become tomorrow's difference makers.
