Our core public mission is centered on the belonging, well-being and success of our undergraduate and graduate students. We offer a world-class faculty and staff who deliver high-impact learning opportunities, hundreds of co-curricular programs, strong alumni career achievement and a caring, holistic community of support—all situated within one of the most inspiring college campuses and most innovative, educated and sustainable communities in the world.
We fulfill our public mission by sharing the positive impacts of new knowledge—from our role as one of the world’s top-ranked research and innovation universities, to our dozens of nationally ranked and highly regarded academic programs, to our hundreds of public outreach efforts that directly affect more than half a million Coloradans each year.
We share a common desire to continuously improve, and we are driven to become a more diverse, equitable, inclusive and anti-racist university. We have hard work to do to make the progress we must achieve, and we seek the commitment and engagement of everyone at CU Boulder to help us build the practice of inclusion into the daily life of our campus.
We are focused on supporting and enabling all who are driven to make a difference—and our faculty, staff and alumni share a proud 145-year history of advancing and sustaining the public good.
