Congratulations to our 2024 graduates!

In greeting BU’s Chobanian & Avedisan School of Medicine Class of 2024 MD and PhD graduates at their May 16 convocation, Karen Antman, school dean and provost of the Medical Campus, noted that graduation is one of the most joyous annual events of academic life. She also reminded them that their doctorates in philosophy and medicine convey considerable public trust.

Citing the amount of unrest around the world, natural disasters, and medical challenges on a global scale, Antman said: “We hope that you will become leaders in solving these issues.”
