合作交流
2004年，波士頓大學設立了“熊曉鴿新聞終身成就獎”，這是中國留學生在美國主流大學以個人名義設立的第一個專業大獎。該獎的設立人熊曉鴿曾於20世紀80年代在波士頓大學新聞傳播學院學習，現為美國國際數據集團全球高級副總裁。
2016年5月6日，波士頓大學時任校長Robert Brown與清華大學校長邱勇先生簽署了系統工程專業雙學位項目合作協定。新的雙學位項目允許清華大學系統工程專業的本科畢業生在波士頓大學工程學院繼續深造，攻讀碩士學位。
2018年5月20日，中國導演張藝謀獲美國波士頓大學頒授人文藝術榮譽博士學位，校方說，授予張藝謀人文藝術榮譽博士學位，主要是表揚這位中國導演在電影及其他藝術上“為世界文化的傳承與綿延、豐富與繁榮做出了不容忽視且難以磨滅的貢獻”。
體育競技
該校籃球校隊與其他八所位於新英格蘭地區、紐約州及馬里蘭州的大學共同屬於“美東聯盟”（America East Conference）； 冰球校隊屬於“冰球東部協會”（Hockey East Association）；並參與“北美十三州體育協會”（Colonial Athletic Association）及“東部大學體育聯盟”（Eastern College Athletic Conference）等約十種男女室內外體育競賽，包括足球、壘球、曲棍球、賽艇、戶外賽跑、游泳等。正式參與競賽等級均屬美國“全國大學體育協會”（National Collegiate Athletic Association）第一級（Division I）。
波士頓大學吉祥物
2009年，男子冰球校隊贏得全國總冠軍。
校隊主色是猩紅色，暱稱為“梗犬”（Terriers），吉祥物名喚“瑞德”（Rhett），是條項圈帶刺、叉手咧嘴的小獵犬。“瑞德”命名的靈感，來自美國1930年代暢銷小說《飄》（Gone With the Wind）中的經典名句：“世上再沒人比瑞德更愛思嘉了。”（No one loves Scarlet more than Rhett.）。書中女主角郝思嘉（Scarlet O'Hara）的名字，恰與猩紅色英文同字；而“瑞德”即源自男主角白瑞德（Rhett Butler）的名字。
校園環境
波士頓大學位於美國獨立革命的發源地新英格蘭（New England）地區最大城市波士頓，是英國清教徒最早登入新大陸的地點。此區共有56所院校，其中包括哈佛大學、麻省理工學院等名校及多所音樂及藝術專業學院。波士頓大學地理位置方便，在交通上有大眾運輸系統MBTA，包括捷運、電車、巴士、火車都可以搭乘。
波士頓大學校區內設施先進，尤其是成立於1989年學生獨立運營的電視台BUTV10、廣播中心WTBU、校刊BU TODAY、酒店（Howard Johnson），提供給傳播學院（College of Communication）及酒店管理學院（School of Hospitality Administration）的學生們絕佳的學習場所。除此之外，波士頓大學還提供了完善的住宿環境，Warren Tower宿舍大樓為全美最大型的宿舍之一；Fitness & Recreation Center體育館和Nickerson Field運動場是學生運動健身的好場所；Mugar圖書館、GSU學生活動中心、BU戲院、BU書局Barnes&Noble等，均是波士頓大學引以為傲的完善設備。
