Welcome

What is the intersection of everything?

It’s 400 The Fenway, a beautiful 17-acre residential campus right in the middle of a rapidly transforming hub of healthcare, biotechnology and cultural institutions.

It’s where a timeless and rigorous academic experience meets career-igniting internships in emerging, indemand fields. It’s where doing well meets doing good.

But it’s more than just a place. It’s an engaged community, a set of values, a commitment to our role in the intellectual and cultural life of the city we call home.

Internship, Required. Experience, Guaranteed.

Throw out what you think you know about internships. Our location and resources translate into amazing experiences at top companies in your chosen field. One internship is required, but don’t be surprised if you can’t stop there (as many of our students don’t).

Popular and high-powered internship locations (not to mention, all nearby) include: Back Bay (Hill Holiday, Deloitte and more)

Park Financial District (Fidelity Investments, State Street, Brown Brothers Harriman, KPMG and more)

Longwood Medical and Academic Area (Boston Children’s Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, DanaFarber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School and more) Massachusetts State House

Merck Research Laboratories (on Emmanuel’s own campus) Museum of

This is our chance to make the future we want to live in. If we really want change, we need to have our boots on the ground. It’s a privilege to go to school and work in Boston, but wherever you live, you need to take care of it, and leave it better than you found it.”

IT’S WHERE EVERYTHING CONNECTS.
Here, we take a holistic approach to education, with you at the center.

At Emmanuel, our curriculum is deeply rooted in the Catholic liberal arts tradition, fostering a spirit of inquiry across a wide range of disciplines. You’ll gain a rich, multidimensional understanding of fields such as life and clinical sciences, business, arts and humanities, government and politics, and education.

Immerse yourself in our vibrant academic community, where you can explore both timeless subjects and emerging fields. Here, you’ll sharpen your critical thinking skills, delve into new technologies, and master the art of analyzing and synthesizing complex data—all while participating in the intellectual and cultural life of the city of Boston.

Learn by Doing

As an Emmanuel student, you can dive into advanced research, working side-by-side with faculty members as early as your freshman year – an opportunity that’s simply not available everywhere. Such hands-on experience offers powerful advantages as you build upon classroom knowledge and prepare for professional opportunities and graduate-level studies.

IT’S WHERE YOUR FUTURE IGNITES.

We believe learning starts in the classroom–but it doesn’t end there.

We understand that experiences flourish through dynamic engagement with the world. Our commitment is to support your immersion in research, travel, creativity, internships, service and more. These experiences turn the “what” of your major into the “why” of a purposeful career.

It’s where you glimpse into the financial engine of billion-dollar companies as a business analysis intern at Fidelity Investments.

It’s where you venture to the Galápagos Islands, delving into its intricate ecosystems and biological diversity on a faculty-led travel course (pictured).

And it’s where you engage in meaningful conversations about your research and network with professionals while presenting your work at a national academic conference.

Emmanuel is your catalyst, providing the resources to shape not just your college years but your future.

A Powerful Partnership

Career development is central to the Emmanuel student experience. Our McCafferty Career Center boasts deep knowledge in industry trends, a robust employer relations team and specific career communities that help you connect your major to an industry or purpose, rather than a singular career path.

100% of Emmanuel students complete an internship, research assistantship, practicum or clinical as part of the undergraduate curriculum.
