Artificial Intelligence
BU has no concrete policy (yet) on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), but did assemble a Task Force for instituting guidelines regarding the use of AI — highlighting the importance of careful use and discretion over University and Academic details and privileged information.
Transportation Benefits
BU’s Transportation Services provides commuting support such as parking information, MBTA passes, bike resources, and the BU Shuttle schedule.
