People from around the world move to Boulder to enjoy its stunning natural beauty, great schools, and invigorating outdoor life. Boulder is a university town of 100,000 that is home to world-renowned scientists, musicians, outdoor athletes, technologists, and thinkers. The Boulder area is home not only to the University of Colorado, but also:
- several national laboratories,
- research campuses for large technology companies (including IBM, Ball Aerospace, and Google),
- natural foods companies (including Celestial Seasonings),
- apparel and outdoor equipment companies,
- environmental NGOs,
- a thriving farm-to-table restaurant culture,
- a great selection of local breweries, and
- one of the nation’s most dynamic tech startup environments.
Many of our students take advantage of outdoor activities such as skiing, rock climbing, cycling, and hiking. Thrilling hikes and rock climbing are only a short walk away from the law school campus. Denver, a fast-growing city and cultural hub, is only 30 miles and the Denver International Airport is only a bit further.
