In 1873, Boston University School of Medicine became the first coeducational medical school in the United States, admitting both men and women from its inception.
The school is home to the Framingham Heart Study, one of the most influential cardiovascular studies in history, which began in 1948 and continues to provide valuable insights into heart disease.
The school is situated in the historic South End neighborhood of Boston, known for its Victorian brownstone buildings and cultural diversity.
The school offers numerous opportunities for students to engage in global health initiatives, including partnerships and projects in countries like Uganda and India.
Boston Medical Center, the primary teaching hospital for the school, is the largest safety-net hospital in New England, providing care to all patients regardless of their ability to pay.
