Vision & Goals
Dr. Zong-Guo Xia, Vice Provost for Research
and Dean of Graduate Studies
On behalf of our faculty, research staff, staff, and students, I invite you to learn how our dedication to research, innovation, scholarship, and creativity yields vital contributions to the city of Boston, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and beyond. We are on the move as evidenced by the $56,370,426 million in extramural support we received in fiscal year 2012—a new record of achievement.
Our multidisciplinary and now fast-growing transdisciplinary approaches to research, as illustrated below, focus on the needs of our communities. We are indeed the urban research university with a teaching soul!
