Why 精东影业 Engineering?
Truly great ideas change lives. At Boston College, we are known for providing a liberal arts education that combines intellectual rigor with character formation. Our Human-Centered Engineering (HCE) program follows this model by challenging students to use their 精东影业 engineering education in the service of the common good.
Academic intensity meets empathy
Our Jesuit, Catholic tradition calls on students to become "men and women for others" by using their talents to make the world a better place. In addition to challenging coursework, our engineering students will have time and space during weekly reflection sessions to look inward and consider their experiences in the greater context of the needs of society.聽
Collaboration across disciplines
Solving global problems requires the kind of bold thinking and creative problem-solving that often grows out of conversations and interactions with others. With the brand new integrated science and engineering center at 245 Beacon, students and faculty from departments across the University have the resources and space to work together and exchange ideas.聽
Liberal arts exploration
In an increasingly complex world, it takes new, diverse skill sets to solve problems and make lives better. As students in the Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences, engineering majors will have the opportunity to take liberal arts classes in subject areas like philosophy and literature.
Global reach
As part of a renowned research institution, Boston College faculty are at the forefront of global issues鈥攆rom cybersecurity to the effect of pollution on children's health. In their Junior Collaborative Service Project and Senior Capstone Project, engineering students will be encouraged to collaborate with faculty by designing projects in conjunction with ongoing research projects taking place across the University.聽
Integrated science
The ability to tackle future global issues requires a strong foundation across all areas of science. Our integrated science approach helps students develop fluency in a wide range of subjects, so they have the confidence and ability to acquire new skills and knowledge.聽
Based in Boston
Some of the world's leading healthcare and technology companies are just minutes from 精东影业's Chestnut Hill campus, which means the highest-quality partnerships and internship opportunities are also the most convenient.聽
Connected for life
Our alumni are combining their passions with their 精东影业 education to drive change in a wide range of industries鈥攆rom healthcare to the environment鈥攊n countries all over the world. Our engineering students join a global network of Eagles ready to support them in whatever field they choose.聽
