Boston University Brussels, officially named the Boston University Brussels Graduate Center, and also known as BUB, is part of Boston University's Metropolitan College (MET), one of seventeen degree granting colleges that make up Boston University. In 1972 Boston University became the first major American university to offer graduate business management degrees in Europe with the opening of its campus in Brussels, Belgium.[1]
Due to its location in the unofficial capital of Europe, home to the European Union and NATO, the school places a strong emphasis on international business, and the student body comprises a diverse range of nationalities and cultures. Participants typically have several years of work experience and are often employed by one of the many multinational corporations and government organizations located in the Benelux region. Classes are held throughout the day or during weekday evenings allowing students to earn a graduate degree within 18–24 months while working full-time.
