Boston University’s Sargent College of Health & Rehabilitation Sciences retained its nation-topping ranking for occupational therapy instruction in U.S. News & World Report’s 2026 evaluation of graduate school programs. It’s the fifth consecutive year that the program has claimed the first spot in the magazine’s rankings.

A half-dozen other BU programs cracked the top 10 in their respective disciplines:

“Sargent has a long history of having top-ranked programs,” says Gloria Waters, BU provost, chief academic officer, and former dean of Sargent. “It is rewarding to see the occupational therapy program at the top of the rankings again. This recognition reflects the program’s faculty, support staff, and the college’s commitment to creating impactful educational experiences that translate into real-world outcomes.”

Of the high rankings for the other University programs, Waters says, “Faculty and staff are creating exceptional educational experiences across BU’s schools and colleges every day. Their efforts are not only reflected in national rankings like these, but in the quality of the students that go on to lead in their chosen fields.” 

Depending on the discipline it is evaluating, U.S. News uses different assessment methodologies. For rankings of programs in sciences, social sciences, humanities, and health, the magazine relies on peer assessment surveys. 

By contrast, for schools of business, education, engineering, law, medicine, and nursing, the rankings are based on two types of data, U.S. News says: “expert opinion about program excellence, and statistical indicators that measure the quality of a school’s academic productivity and postgraduate outcomes.” Last fall and early this year, the magazine sent schools the statistical surveys and sent peer assessments to academics and professionals in the fields being evaluated.

The peer assessments asked deans, program directors, and senior faculty to rank the academic quality of programs in their disciplines, from 5 (outstanding) to 1 (marginal). U.S. News buttressed those evaluations with surveys of professionals hiring or working with recent graduates in certain fields.

Pittsburgh Regional Transit will hold a public meeting on Tuesday to hear from riders on the proposed Bus Line Refresh.

According to PRT, the Bus Line Refresh is an update to the bus network and is designed to improve reliability, frequency, seven-day service, and connectivity.

“We have some new routes proposed, a North Hills to Oakland connection, a South Hills Oakland connection, that don’t exist today. We also are proposing to increase service on off-peak hours,” said Jake Stockman, a senior planner for PRT. “And then also wanting to make sure that throughout this process, we’re centering equity, to make sure that the communities where the service is needed the most aren’t being left behind.”

The Bus Line Refresh is the second draft of the Bus Line Redesign, which Stockman said prompted more than 90 public engagement events and garnered more than 12,000 public comments.

However, this time, the proposed updates will not be as drastic.

“We’ve called it the ‘Refresh’ because we want the second draft to reflect that we’re reducing the volume of change so the system will look a little bit more familiar to our existing riders compared to what we previously presented in 1.0,” Stockman told Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 Reporter Jordan Cioppa.

PRT staff will continue to gather public feedback on the new proposal through a number of ways, such as attending community meetings and popping up at bus stops. Stockman presented the plan to West End neighbors Monday night.

“The increased frequency sounds great, later on Sunday night for people. There used to be service after midnight. Some people do work past 11 p.m.,” said John McNulty, a West End resident and PRT rider.

Public comment started in March and will last through May. PRT will then host public hearings this summer before presenting a final plan to the PRT board in the fall.

Stockman said the goal is to implement the changes in 2027.

Riders are encouraged to attend the main public comment meeting on April 7 at the August Wilson Center from 5 to 7 p.m.
