The University of Colorado Boulder is the major research university in the Rocky Mountain region of the U.S. CU Boulder has a proud academic tradition, with five Nobel laureates in the sciences, nine MacArthur “genius grant” recipients, more than 100 Fulbright scholars since 1982, and approximately 80 combined members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Education, the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Academy of Sciences. Several CU Boulder research faculty from the National Snow and Ice data center shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with former Vice President Al Gore for their contributions to the international report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The university has historically ranked as one of the top five sources of Peace Corps volunteers among U.S. colleges and universities and is the home of the founding chapter of Engineers Without Borders.

The CU Boulder Graduate School offers 62 doctoral and 80 master’s degree programs in a full range of disciplines, including humanities, social sciences, physical and biological sciences, fine arts, performing arts, engineering, journalism, business, music, and education. The Graduate  School provides students with a wide scope of research opportunities. It oversees 11 research institutes on campus that conduct interdisciplinary investigations in such areas as environmental sciences, space studies, biotechnology, renewable energy, and behavioral science. Students participate in the research programs of faculty and in cooperative research programs with federal agencies, laboratories, and private industries. Faculty received $511.1 million in sponsored research awards in the 2018 fiscal year, part of which helps support the work of hundreds of graduate students, gives graduate students access to high-quality equipment, and fosters collaboration with world-class faculty. The University of Colorado Law School offers rich opportunities for interdisciplinary study through seven dual degree programs with other CU Boulder schools and colleges.

The campus maintains an intimate college atmosphere for undergraduate students with many small academic communities and 83% of classes enrolling fewer than 50 students. CU Boulder offers more than 4,000 undergraduate courses in approximately 150 areas of study and 81 degree programs at the bachelor’s level. Undergraduates apply to the following colleges, schools, and programs: Arts & Sciences, Leeds School of Business, Engineering & Applied Science, Music, Environmental Design, Education, and Communication, Media and Information. CU Boulder faculty members bring their research into the classroom in areas such as physics, space sciences, and the American West. University facilities include an observatory, planetarium, mountain research station, a hands-on teaching and learning laboratory for engineering, and the Alliance for Teaching, Learning, & Society Center, a structure that offers the university community groundbreaking instructional technology and learning opportunities. Outstanding departments and programs include aerospace engineering, astrophysical and planetary sciences, biochemistry, biology, chemistry, engineering, English, entrepreneurial business, geography, integrative physiology, music, physics, and psychology.

Undergraduate students participate in approximately 400 study abroad programs in 65 countries, honors programs, undergraduate research, service learning courses—combining community service with instruction, and 12 residential academic programs. CU Boulder students come from every state and more than 100 countries, which enriches campus life with a variety of cultures and perspectives.
