Arts & Sciences stands at the heart of Boston University.

Our mission is to employ the full range of arts and sciences perspectives to understand our present and past; to discover, create, and innovate; to educate our students to be informed, adaptable, lifelong learners and leaders; and to be a connected, empowered, and inclusive community. We tackle tough questions while accounting for the human dimension and thinking ethically and critically.
