About Boston University School of Medicine

Overview​

Boston University School of Medicine is a 4-year MD-granting program that traces its roots back to the Boston Female Medical College, which welcomed its first class in 1848. The Boston Female Medical College merged officially in 1874 with Boston University. The School of Medicine values a warm, welcoming environment at their university. Strong collaborative relationships are established between students. Strong collegial relationships are also emphasized between faculty and students. The Boston Medical Center is the primary teaching hospital, home to the busiest Emergency Department in the Northeast.

Boston University School of Medicine is dedicated to the educational, intellectual, professional, and personal development of a diverse group of exceptional students, trainees, and faculty who are deeply committed to the study and to the practice of medicine, to biomedical research, and to the health of the public. We, as a community, place great value on excellence, integrity, service, social justice, collegiality, equality of opportunity, and interdisciplinary collaboration.

BUSM will provide International leadership in biomedical education, research and patient care.
