Research and creative work are cornerstones of a liberal arts education. Gain an in-depth examination of a particular subject and/or contribute something new to an artistic field. There are many benefits to conducting research and producing creative work at CU Boulder, and there are ways to do both across the departments in arts and sciences.
"In Fall 2018, I had the amazing opportunity to conduct research with a professor in the biochemistry department. Although I only worked in the lab for a semester, I was able to learn many new lab techniques and apply the information I'd learned in my classes. CU has a ton of great research opportunities, and I would encourage everybody to look into programs like UROP and DLA to find a setting that fits their interests and availability."
