What is experiential learning?

Experiential learning involves a cycle of engagement and reflection in which you learn by reflecting on the process of applying your learning, or doing.  

These activities often provide opportunities for you to take initiative, make decisions, be creative, synthesize and apply your learning, engage physically and emotionally, while experiencing mistakes and successes.

Many of the skills you learn are valuable in contexts other than academics. These skills align to the changing future of work, which increasingly values the ability to learn new skills as well as find and think critically about new information.

UROP’s Curiosity Lab virtual workshop series is open to all CU Boulder undergraduates interested in experiential learning on campus and beyond.

All workshops are designed to support students at any stage of their undergraduate career—and with any level of experience with research, internships or other opportunities. 

Each workshop will introduce new content and provide opportunities to connect with supportive staff and peers throughout the Boulder community. 

We encourage you to check out the resources included on our website as you reflect, connect and engage!
