Career Edge

Put Your Career In Drive

Recruiters love our students. Our 2006 MBA graduates enjoyed a 95% job placement rate within three months after graduation (which is among the top 10 placement rates in the country).

Our 2005 graduates also received average salary offers nearly 10% higher than the national rate.

In a recent ranking by Financial Times, BU School of Management graduates were ranked first nationally in speed of career advancement.

We support you from the very first semester. If a Boston University School of Management education is the engine that drives your career, the Feld Career Center is the accelerator. Whether you’re an undergraduate, graduate student, or part of the alumni community, you will receive tailored career guidance that’ll get you to your destination, beginning your first week on campus.

Part of the success stems from the MBA Professional Portfolio program, both a roadmap and a ‘living résumé’ that sets you apart. Integrated into the curriculum, the Portfolio program not only helps your find your first job after your MBA, but also gives you career management skills to be successful throughout your lifetime. The Professional Portfolio program helps students define their career goals, refine the presentation of their achievements, and enhances their ability to communicate experience to potential employers or business partners.

Our undergraduates receive consistently high marks for, in the words of one recruiter, “their ability to adapt, their teaming skills, their leadership, and their grasp of ‘big picture’ situations.”

Well over 300 companies recruited our graduate students last year and our undergraduates attracted equally high interest.

If you want to be prepared, and noticed, this is the right place.
