Engineering is a profession that strives to improve quality of life for all people and all communities. Research shows that engineering discoveries and technology are more robust and more successful when they are developed through consideration of many perspectives and diverse experiences. The world needs more engineers, and BU Engineering is dedicated to meeting that need. We are committed to creating an environment where diverse viewpoints are discussed constructively and where everyone can thrive
