“The DLP classes I’ve taken so far have been great-the instructors are very personable and open to questions beyond the classroom. And being able to take advantage of watching course on the web has been a huge help.” –Guy Thompson ’07, Raytheon

“The Distance Learning Program offered by Boston University in Manufacturing Engineering has proven to be a great resource for continuing my education. The wide variety of classes offered through the Distance Learning Program gives students the opportunity to expand their knowledge and gain insight into many different areas of industry that they would not usually be subjected to in their day-to-day positions. I’ve greatly benefited from the program’s flexibility of working to your schedule, especially with afternoon/evening classes. In the event that you are away on business or miss a class, the ability to review the classes via the web makes it easy to keep up to date with class progress. I would strongly recommend the DLP to any working professional considering an advanced degree in Manufacturing Engineering.” –Keith Bagley ’06, Pratt & Whitney

“Having complete my undergraduate degree in a traditional, on-campus program at Boston University, I can say that there is no comproise in the quality of education received in the Graduate Distance Learning Program. The program was accommodating to my needs as a prefessional and a parent, having taken courses through my home computer and through a remoter set-up from a work conference room.” –Margaret Lortie ’05, DePuy A Johnson & Johnson Company
