| Colleges and universities |
| The Boston area is well-known for its colleges and universities. |
| Boston College was the first institution of higher education
to be founded in Boston, though it moved from the city's South
End to then-rural Chestnut Hill to escape Boston's rapid urbanization
in the late nineteenth century. |
| Harvard University, the nation's oldest university, was founded
in Cambridge, where it maintains its main campus, though the
bulk of its current land holdings lie in Boston. |
| The greater Boston area is home to over 100 colleges. In addition
to schools in Boston proper, including Berklee College of Music,
Boston Conservatory, the Boston Architectural Center, Boston
University, Emerson College, Emmanuel College, Fisher College,
the Massachusetts College of Art, the New England Conservatory
of Music, Northeastern University, Simmons College, and Suffolk
University, surrounding cities host Babson College, Bentley
College, Brandeis University, Hellenic College, Lesley University,
the Longy School of Music, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
Merrimack College, Pine Manor College, Regis College, Tufts
University and Wellesley College, among others. |
