Sure, Boston is home to several renowned architecture programs. Here are a few you might want to consider:

1) Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT): MIT's School of Architecture + Planning is one of the most esteemed architecture programs in the world. It emphasizes technological literacy, liberal arts, and professional competency, providing students with a comprehensive architectural education.

2) Harvard University: The Graduate School of Design at Harvard offers a rigorous and well-rounded architecture program. Note that Harvard's architecture programs are mainly for graduate students, but undergraduate students can choose a track in Architecture Studies.

3) Northeastern University: Northeastern's School of Architecture offers an array of programs including a 5-year Bachelor of Science degree that combines theoretical learning with professional experience, providing a solid foundation for an architecture career.

4) Boston Architectural College (BAC): BAC is one of the few schools that focuses primarily on architecture and design, offering a Bachelor of Architecture degree. Their program combines classroom instruction with practical work experience, promoting a learning-by-doing approach.

5) Wentworth Institute of Technology: Wentworth offers a Bachelor of Science in Architecture that provides students with a fundamental understanding of the field, and a Master of Architecture program that is accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board.

These schools not only offer solid instructional curriculum but also provide excellent internship opportunities given their location in a city known for its diverse and historic architecture. Make sure to further research each program to find the one that best aligns with your academic and career goals. Best of luck with your college search!
