IR at BU

<p>hi i was wondering how the IR program at boston university is like? i know that Tufts has one of the best programs from undergrad/grad but i cant get into Tufts and I liked BU more anyway when i visited it :). Does anyone know if the program is respectable? if it can get me a good internship or possibly get me into a good graduate school?</p>

<p>My S just declared IR for a major this (Jr) yr. He turned down Tufts for BU because of the urban environment. There is no question that BU does not have the rep of a Georgetown or Tufts in the IR field but so far the BU program seems impressive with well known faculty. Have no idea about jobs, internships, or grad school though. I'd like to hear from BU IR alumni about this too. Search this link for more info.</p>

<p>Although the IR program may be better at Tufts, BU is a pretty impressive school with an intelligent faculty, so you probably will be able to find a good internship or graduate school - it's all about what you make of your education.</p>

<p>thanks bery much!</p>
