CharacteristicRatingComment
Would Recommend?yesThere are many more cost effective options, but BU will put you on a path to a great career and an even more interesting life.
Program Reputation9Some alumni have gone on to become executives at Motorola and TI, among other big firms. The school receives lots of government funding for research.
Program Quality9The system design techniques and manufacturing knowledge base were extremely valuable in getting my first job and growing my career. The school offered excellent research background and training skills.
Instruction9The teachers were from MIT and all had PhDs.
How Difficult8The thesis requirements were difficult. It was a very competitive environment.
Hands-On vs. BookishThe course work was theoretical. One was given lots of foundational knowledge. However, there was some lab and project work that was team oriented.
Schedule Flexibility8Students had the ability to finish courses over a longer time period.
Academic Facilities9World class engineering facilities. Great gym, dorms, and other student facilities.
Social Life9Being in Boston, the social environment is just great. There are lots of high energy people and activities all around.
Placement Services8The placement services could be more organized. Being next to MIT, BU plays second fiddle when it comes to job opportunities.
Alumni Network7Alumni is a mixed group. Engineering was a subgroup among 30000 students, so it's tough to relate and find the right people to connect with.
Review your current or past school and help others make better career decisions.
