Boston University was founded as one of the first all-inclusive universities, as well as a leading private research and teaching institution. With 32,000 students from 50 states and 140 countries, BU is the fourth largest independent university in the United States. For over 150 years, Boston University has anticipated the changing needs of its students while serving the greater needs of society.

This program is designed for students who seek advanced interdisciplinary study in education. Teachers who already hold an initial license often select this program to develop an EdM or a CAGS program that includes both advanced liberal arts and advanced professional education study. With their advisors, courses are selected either to deepen one aspect of the student’s profession or to provide a way of expanding his or her teaching into a new area. Some select this program because they want to study schools and the profession of teaching without pursuing a license for teaching. The EdM program requires one research course, three courses in the Department of Curriculum & Teaching, and five courses selected with the consent of the advisor.
