Boston is a nexus of public health research and practice and offers countless professional opportunities, locally, nationally, and internationally. Beyond its role in the field of public health, the city of Boston is internationally regarded for unparalleled sports and entertainment, from the Boston Red Sox, Bruins, and Celtics to the Museum of Fine Arts, the Boston Pops, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Greater Boston's rich array of world-class universities, colleges, and schools distinguishes the region as one of the world's most vibrant centers of higher education.
Boston University's School of Public Health is in the heart of the BU Medical Campus - which is also home to the University's School of Medicine and the Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine - in the city's historic South End neighborhood. The schools are affiliated with Boston Medical Center, New England's largest safety-net hospital, which is dedicated to serving all patients regardless of their ability to pay. The Medical Campus and Boston Medical Center are neighbors with a number of public health organizations and agencies that provide additional research and practice opportunities for students, as well as partnerships with the School.
