February 28, 2008

The UCB Institute for Ethical and Civic Engagement has assumed responsibility for three additional programs, including the Peace Corps recruitment program, the Access Colorado Program and the Public Interest Internship Experience (PIIE) Program. UCB is ranked third in the U.S. for the number of its graduates serving in the Peace Corps. Access Colorado is a three-year initiative that addresses high school and middle school retention, success and access to higher education through civic engagement programs in low-achieving schools in Boulder County. The PIIE Program will also be run in collaboration with career services. It will provide a limited number of fellowship grants each year to undergraduate students at CU-Boulder for full-time summer internships with government and 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. UCB is the only public university in the country participating in this program.
