BU MET offers eligible international students full-time, on-campus graduate study opportunities in Boston, with access to Boston University housing, resources, faculty, and a global student community.
“Boston was also the right environment for this journey. It’s an international hub of innovation, with access to world-class faculty and diverse perspectives. MET’s flexibility allowed me to manage my studies while continuing to engage with my responsibilities as an officer. And outside the classroom, I found a second family, professors and classmates who challenged, supported, and inspired me. I’ve met people from all over the world, and we’ve formed friendships that I know will last forever.” Read more.
