Overview

Colorado State University is one of the nation’s top public research universities, with a strong commitment to excel in all we do.

Colorado State was founded as the Colorado Agricultural College in 1870, six years before the Colorado Territory was granted statehood, and it was one of 68 land-grant colleges established by President Abraham Lincoln’s signing of the Morrill Act. Our tradition of providing a high-quality, affordable higher education to all who have the desire and ability to achieve it runs deep, and CSU remains the “university of choice” for Colorado residents -- more Colorado high-school students choose CSU than any other campus.

Colorado offers exceptional academic programs, with 76 undergraduate degree programs, 114 graduate degree programs, 21 professional master's degree programs, and our prestigious Professional Veterinary Medicine program. Many of CSU's academic programs are ranked among the best in the nation and world. Our world-class research and scholarship attract more than $370 million in research funding every year, and CSU ranks second nationally in federal research funding for universities without a medical school.
